Citizens’ Registry The Supreme Electoral Tribunal (TSE) canceled the Movimiento Semilla party, complying with the order of Judge Fredy Orellana, which complicates the situation for the elected deputies.
Why is it significant? The 23 congresses were confident that the resolution of Judge Fredy Orellana would have no effect, because only the TSE has the power to cancel political parties. Though, it was announced this Friday that the Citizens’ Registry complied with the judge’s order.
- On Thursday, November 28, Samuel Pérez reported that they sent an amparo before the Constitutional Court to prevent the TSE and the congress of the Republic, who were notified of orellana’s decision, from “feeling that it he is obliged to comply with it.”
- In addition, they filed another injunction in an appeals court to nullify the judge’s order.
- For his part,the deputy Rónalth Ochaeta expressed in his X account that “no public official should comply with illegal resolutions”.
We have just filed a defense action before the CC so that Congress and the TSE Registry will not be forced to comply with the ILLEGAL, ridiculous and unacceptable resolution of Freddy Orellana 🌱 pic.twitter.com/tBpvRIYA9w

The details. The cancellation of the group, dictated by Orellana, was at the request of the Office of the Special Prosecutor Against Penalty (FECI), directed by Rafael Curruchiche. This submission was based on the convictions resulting from the acceptance of charges procedure.
- The document,which was sent to the Congress and the TSE,refers to the sentences issued in this way against the former deputy and director of the Institute for the care of Victims,Ligia Hernández,for crimes of unregistered electoral financing and electoral control of funds.
- Also mentioned is the conviction of José Alejandro Rueda for the crimes of breach of duty and influence peddling.
- In addition,Jennyfer Estrada Escobar and katherine Johana Quezada villatoro are included in the crime of breach of duty.
What lies ahead. The deputies have the option to appeal against the decision of the Registry of Citizens, so that they could take the matter before the plenary session of the TSE magistrates.
- It remains to be seen whether the CC will grant the requested temporary protection and whether the Congress of the Republic will follow the same steps as the Registry of Citizens or whether they will wait for a final resolution.
- If the deputies fail to reverse the cancellation, they will be forced to complete the legislature as self-reliant deputies, which would imply that they will not be able to chair committees or be part of the Board of Directors.

time.news Editor (Mark): Welcome, everyone! today, we’re thrilled to have Dr. Clara Thompson with us, a leading expert in futurism and tech ethics. Clara,thank you for joining us!
Dr. Clara Thompson: Thank you for having me, Mark! It’s a pleasure to be hear.
Mark: Let’s dive right in. with the rapid advancement in technologies like AI,blockchain,and biotechnology,what excites you most about the future?
Dr. Thompson: That’s a great question! Personally, I’m particularly excited about the potential of AI to enhance our understanding of complex systems—from climate models to healthcare diagnostics. It’s an astounding tool that can help us make data-driven decisions that can potentially transform society for the better.
Mark: Absolutely! But with great power comes great responsibility. How do you see the ethical implications of AI evolving as these technologies become more integrated into our daily lives?
Dr. Thompson: Yes, ethics must be at the forefront of innovation.as we rely more on AI, we need to ensure clarity and accountability in its deployment. This means developing frameworks that not only govern the technology but also prioritize inclusivity and fairness. If we don’t address these issues, we risk deepening inequalities and biases.
Mark: Speaking of inclusivity, how crucial do you think public engagement is when it comes to technology policy-making?
Dr. Thompson: It’s crucial! Technology affects everyone, so public dialog is essential. Engaging diverse voices—especially those from marginalized communities—can provide insights that lead to more equitable outcomes. I believe collaborative policymaking can create a more democratic approach to tech regulation.
Mark: Collaboration seems to be the key theme here. Looking ahead, what would you say are the most pressing challenges we face in the next decade, and how can we overcome them?
Dr. Thompson: One of the biggest challenges will be navigating the societal impact of automation and job displacement. We need to reimagine our workforce and invest in reskilling programs. Additionally, climate change remains an existential crisis. Innovative technologies must be paired with sustainable practices to ensure we are making progress in a responsible way.
Mark: Reskilling seems vital. What role do you think educational institutions should play in preparing the future workforce for this?
Dr. Thompson: Educational institutions are at the forefront of this transition. They need to adapt curricula to include not just technical skills but also critical thinking, creativity, and ethical reasoning. Bridging the gap between academia and industry through partnerships can help facilitate a smoother transition into the workforce.
Mark: Fascinating insights, Clara. Let’s pivot a bit. How do you envision the world 20 years from now if we make the right choices today?
Dr. Thompson: If we make the right choices, I envision a world where technology enhances human capabilities, supports sustainable practices, and fosters global cooperation. Imagine smart cities that are not only efficient but also prioritize the well-being of their citizens. Healthcare that is predictive and personalized thanks to AI, and education that is accessible for all.
Mark: That sounds like an inspiring future! To close, what one piece of advice would you give to our audience about engaging with technology responsibly?
Dr. Thompson: Stay informed and be proactive. Technology isn’t just a tool; it’s a reflection of our values as a society. Engage in conversations, advocate for responsible practices, and demand transparency from companies and policymakers. Your voice matters, and together we can shape a future that aligns with our collective human values.
Mark: Wise words, Clara! Thank you so much for joining us today and sharing your invaluable perspective. We appreciate your time.
