On this Monday the members of the General Council of Judges (CGPJ) will meet again to elect a president after progress has been noted in the negotiations. Meeting to be held at three days from the opening of the judicial year.
It must be remembered that the Plenary decided on 5 August do not meet again until the story is over after three days of fruitless negotiations. Sources consulted by Europa Press indicated that this new meeting does not indicate that an agreement will be reached, but they acknowledged that there is some progress and that the new Presidency may be on the right track.
Last Wednesday, the Minister of the Presidency, Justice and Relations with the Cortes, Félix Bolaños, expressed that the members will “make the best decision” in this new meeting, pointing out that the candidates have prestige. “indisputable” and trajectory “without fault”.
The candidates
The candidates will be in charge of the governing body of the judiciary and the Supreme Court Esperanza Córdoba, Antonio del Moral, Anna Ferrer, Angeles Huet, Carmen Lamela, Paul Lucas y Pilar Teso.
Members agreed on a choice between Teso – proposed by the progressive wing – and Lucas – promoted by the conservatives – but after several votes they did not break the 10-vote tie between the two candidates. Because of that failure they went back to square one, so they will have to choose between the seven names again.
