King Felipe VI will preside this Thursday at the Supreme Court the opening of the courts, a formal act of a merely institutional nature that marks the beginning of the judicial year in Spain. This is an annual tradition.
However, Spanish judges have already begun their activity since early September, with judicial decisions of great political transcendence. The instruction of various cases was resumed with the taking of different statements in their respective proceedings.
Among the most relevant cases are processes related to corruption cases involving important political figures. These proceedings have generated an intense confrontation between judges and the Spanish Government, creating an atmosphere of political tension around the judicial power.
The judicial year thus unfolds marked by these judicial proceedings of great political importance, which continue to keep the focus on Spanish justice and its most delicate decisions.
