The Ministry of Justice insists that the stabilization of hundreds of judges and substitute prosecutors is the ideal solution to avoid the enormous ‘economic broken’ that would mean indemnify them for the years in interim situationas sources from the department of Félix Bolaños transfer to La Razón.
But also for the European Union Do not impose a sanction on our country for precariousness that these (and other) employees of the public administration suffer.
These ministerial sources explain that it is the intermediate remedy for Keep, at the same time, the criteria of merit and capacity in the access to the judicial and fiscal careers that the Constitutional Court has armored with its jurisprudence.
From Justice they exhibit to this newspaper that Spain He received last July a letter in which the European Commission He warned that they have the obligation to regularize interim public employees.
In a second letter received last October, – according to the government sources consulted – the European authorities confirmed that those who exercise the jurisdictional function As substitutes are also included in this requirement And you can’t do an exception with them.
Faced with the criticisms with which the opposition and some judicial associations have accused them to ‘strain’ in the judiciary to the Executive and the PSOE, from the Bolaños team ironize that, being judges who already exercise as substitutes, they would have achieved that end that impute them, without the need for stabilization to occur.
Since, they remember, around 669 already work and issue sentencesand there are some unattractive destinations for the headlines that are eternally covered by this group and that, without them, these courts would not work.
In addition, as the aforementioned ministerial sources remember, the substitutes are selected by the presidents of the Superior Courts of Justice, of which 15 of 17 are chaired by conservative magistratesand it is the General Council of the Judiciary that ends up authorizing, later, to provide this service.
In short, what they come to highlight is that The Ministry does not intervene when selecting who is the substitute That, now, if it exceeds a contest-opposition and has five years of experience behind it, you can access this extraordinary contest-opposition process-written and weighting of merits-to the race.
In addition, they deny that they will affect those who earn a place by opposition and advance that, if they can, They will offer more posts in the free shift than those in the previous calls.
On the other hand, they deny that the substitutes that become members of the plenary magistracy will have the ability to pass in front of the latest promotions when opting for discretionary appointment. They ensure, in this sense, that They will have priority those who have previously accessed by opposition.
