The PS deputies elected for the circle of Leiria requested explanations from the minister of Justice about the closure of the Court of Alvaiázere. The request comes following the bad weather associated with a depression that affected the region.
The socialist parliamentarians want to understand the circumstances that led to the closure of the court and the measures that were taken to guarantee access to justice for the citizens of the comarca.
The court is located in the area of the district of Leiria, an area that was impacted by adverse weather conditions. The situation raised questions about the preparation and response of judicial infrastructures in emergency situations.
The minister of Justice is now called upon to provide clarifications about this decision and about how the minimum justice services were guaranteed for the affected population during the closure period.
