• Justice: The judges upload portraits of Felipe VI to the networks to denounce his veto in the act of Barcelona

  • Editorial.Why is Felipe VI not in Barcelona today?

The government's veto on the presence of the King in the act of handing over offices to the new class of judges continues to have consequences.

The president of the Constitutional Court, Juan José González Rivas, announced on Wednesday that he would not attend the act that takes place this Friday at the headquarters of the Judicial School in Barcelona.

González Rivas had previously confirmed his attendance at the event.

The formal reason given is matters of the agenda.

Specifically, her participation by videoconference in the XIII Ibero-American Conference of Constitutional Courts.

However, judicial sources consider it evident that the absence is González Rivas' response to the Executive's snub of Felipe VI, who had always attended dispatch deliveries.

Once the Monarch was removed, the president of the Constitutional Court was the highest authority of the State that had planned to attend the event.

To the implicit message of the president of the TC will be added the one expressly planned to communicate this noon by the president of the CGPJ,

Carlos Lesmes

, in his speech at the event.

The Permanent Commission of the governing body of judges agreed on Thursday to leave the "institutional response" to the absence of the King in the hands of Lesmes, although several members also decided to issue a statement in which they deeply regretted the absence of the Monarch in the Condal City.

In that statement, the six members recall that according to the Constitution, Justice "is administered in the name of the King, which is why it is customary for the main acts of Spanish judicial life -the opening of the judicial year and the delivery of dispatches to the new promotion - be presided over by the King ».

After learning that the government had not authorized the presence of Felipe VI in Barcelona, ​​three of the four judicial associations - the Professional Association of the Judiciary, the Francisco de Vitoria Association and the Independent Judicial Forum - issued separate communications demanding explanations, since the Government had not communicated to the CGPJ the reasons for its decision.
