This article analyses how the Supreme Court case law has been addressing the issue of when a defendant's testimony should happen at trial, with a special focus on the decisions handed down in 2023. It also proposes ways to resolve this issue in the future. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The theme of this article is to study the judicial discretion of the Federal Supreme Court (STF) in times of the Covid-19 pandemic. The general objective is to outline a propaedeutic guide on the judicial attributions of the STF, as well as the limits of the use of judicial discretion by constitutional judges in pandemic times. The specific objective is to demonstrate, at least superficially, that the exercise of judicial discretion, which takes into account the application of hermeneutic-interpretative methods, even if used under the allegations of the "open texture of law", "pamprinciologismo" and the enforcement of guarantees constitutional individual, find limits in the normative text. Justifies the wording of this article, as the exercise of discretion is inherent to the jurisdictional activity. Nevertheless, it is important to delimit its use, so that there is no disrespect for the tripartite system of power, the usurpation of competence, illegitimacy of decisions, even in pandemic times. The methodology to be observed will be the bibliographic procedure, through the deductive method, with a qualitative approach. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This article examines how the subjective element of gun-jumping infringements has developed since the National Court's judgment in the Bergé case. We analyse the main aspects of the decisions of the National Markets and Competition Commission, the National Court and Supreme Court. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

El presente artículo analiza las consecuencias de la interpretación realizada por el Tribunal Supremo de la legislación en materia de patrimonio cultural en el juicio sobre las ventas a la Generalitat de Cataluña y al Museo Nacional de Arte de Cataluña de los bienes del Real Monasterio de Santa María de Sijena, en la provincia de Huesca. A diferencia de los juzgadores de instancia, el Tribunal Supremo realiza una interpretación de las leyes de patrimonio de 1926, 1933 y 1985 que conlleva una menor protección de la integridad de los bienes de interés cultural y no garantiza el mantenimiento de su indivisibilidad. El trabajo trata de mostrar que una interpretación más acorde con las leyes revela la voluntad del legislador de proteger la indivisibilidad y la integridad de dichos bienes, pero, en todo caso, como consecuencia del análisis se proponen una serie de modificaciones legislativas que permitan contrarrestar en lo sucesivo la interpretación del Tribunal Supremo y evitar sus posibles perjuicios. Para finalizar, se realiza una breve reflexión sobre diversos aspectos relativos al patrimonio cultural a propósito del polémico caso de los bienes de Sijena.

This article intends to analyze the STF’s performance, based on Ronald Dworkin’s law as integrity in two constitutional cases involving, in a broad sense, the right of people with disabilities to inclusive education. Developed through the deductive method and bibliographic and jurisprudential procedures, the research allowed the conclusion that the decisions pronounced by the Brazilian Constitutional Court in Direct Unconstitutionality Actions nº 5.357 and nº 6.590 are in accordance with Dworkin’s ideal of integrity, considering that, in both, there is a coherent interpretative continuity of the existing legal elements on the subject, in deference to the historical change of paradigm in the treatment of disability, result of social mobilization. The decisions taken can be considered “correct”, since they interpret the right to its best light, essentially based on arguments of principles, especially that of equality (material), in favor of the fundamental right to inclusive education.

Una reciente sentencia del Tribunal Supremo ha basado el fallo en un informe del Comité de Bioética de España sobre la maternidad subrogada, lo que coincide con un creciente debate acerca de la necesidad de incorporar este tipo de comités a la Carta Magna de cada país. Sin embargo, su constitucionalización plantea no pocos problemas, tanto por la posible composición de dicho órgano como por la naturaleza de sus informes y su relación con el poder legislativo y el judicial. Para analizar esta compleja cuestión, y empleando como hilo vertebrador la resolución judicial dictada sobre la maternidad subrogada, estudiaremos tres alternativas y su reflejo en dicha temática, en concreto: a) como “juego de suma cero” versus“reparto de cromos”; b) como “igualdad de oportunidades versus“igualdad de resultados”: c) como consecuencia de la Cuarta Revolución Industrial.

Este artículo analiza las estrategias de defensa de Jordi Cuixart durante la causa especial 20907/2017 ante el Tribunal Supremo. El enfoque se compone a partir de la obra de Jacques Vergès y su distinción entre estrategias de ruptura y connivencia, tomando aportes de otras fuentes para contextualizar el análisis y comprender la caracterización de la justicia como institución política al servicio del poder establecido, lo cual es elemental para situar las categorías de Vergès y el comportamiento de Cuixart. Busca así mismo constatar la existencia de fines políticos que explican el comportamiento procesal del acusado y el cambio que acontece entre la instrucción y el juicio oral. Conocerlos es útil para comprender, por un lado, la dicotomía entre ruptura y connivencia en base a un ejemplo actual; y por otro, las razones que mueven a Cuixart, lo que ayuda a conocer mejor el proceso y los escenarios que, tras el mismo, aparecen.

The aim of this article is to highlight the potential role of the constitutional court as a multidisciplinary forum where different parts of the legal system are brought together on the basis of common principles enshrined in the Constitution. The court is in a good institutional position to acquire a systematic view of the legal order as a whole. This feature is of particular relevance in civil law countries, whose judiciaries tend to exhibit a high degree of specialization. The interdisciplinary conversation that may develop within the constitutional court is a form of Socratic dialogue that helps overcome cognitive biases caused by excessive specialization.

While the classification of gig economy workers under European labour law has been controversial for many years, the COVID-19 pandemic made it a priority. The role of the gig economy has changed: from being an employment option that provides supplementary income, it has become many people's main income source, which is why the European Union (EU) announced its intention to address this issue. In 2021, there was intense activity around gig economy jurisprudence across Europe, with supreme courts in several member states making judgements and new laws classifying the participants in this sector of the labour market. This paper draws on three case studies - from the UK, the Netherlands and Spain - to explore recent developments in gig economy jurisprudence and to draw conclusions for the future.

This article explains the RLD corpus, a collection of cases where the "Jueces del Supremo" (Lords and Ladies Justices) of the Spanish High Court and the Constitutional Court have turned to Spanish dictionaries and grammar as a source of linguistic authority to write court judgments. The four main stages followed in the creation of the corpus, (i) design, (ii) implementation, (iii) revision and (iv) publication, are thoroughly explained. The aim of this corpus, which includes 1,940 court judgments issued between the years 2012 and 2018, is to provide a representative and empirically adequate sample of data of the use of dictionaries and grammar as a source of linguistic authority in Spanish jurisprudence. This corpus fills a gap in language and law studies: on the one hand, the lack of large shared corpora of legal texts, available for any researcher or research group interested in this issue, and, on the other hand, the need to analyze empirically the use of dictionaries and grammar in the court judgments of the Spanish High Court and the Constitutional Court.

This paper analyzes the power to make regulations conferred to the Spanish General Council of the Judiciary from the first of its Organic Laws to the present. To do so, we examine the laws that have regulated this issue over the years, since 1980 until the last most important reform, the Organic Law 4/2013, the regulations approved by the General Council of the Judiciary and the judgments handed down by the Constitutional Court and the Supreme Court. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper studies the Constitutional Court's manifestations of self-restraint, that is, those areas in which, within the margin granted by the Constitution and the law, the Court has shown deference to the actions of the judicial bodies, seeking to draw the perimeter that is proper to its actions. There are some cases in which, if we speak of self-restraint, it would be in an improper sense because deference to the ordinary jurisdiction is a normative requirement of the Constitutional Court Act (LOTC). In other areas, which we could call self-restraint proper, the self-limitation is expressed in constructions of the Constitutional Court itself, without prejudice to the fact that they are ultimately anchored in the position that the Constitution reserves for the Constitutional Court, the ordinary jurisdiction, and the Supreme Court.

El Tribunal Europeo de Derechos Humanos es la instancia internacional más relevante en el ámbito regional europeo en materia de protección de los derechos humanos. Sus sentencias, aunque declarativas, son vinculantes. En España se instauró un nuevo motivo del recurso de revisión con la reforma operada por la Ley 41/2015 de modificación de la Ley de Enjuiciamiento Criminal a fin de establecer un medio para la ejecución de las sentencias del Tribunal de Estrasburgo. Tras cinco años de vigencia esta vía parece consolidarse a la luz del reciente Anteproyecto de Ley de Enjuiciamiento Criminal. El objetivo de este trabajo es ofrecer una mirada a la eficacia de las sentencias del Tribunal Europeo en el proceso penal español y al margen del Tribunal Supremo para determinar su alcance.

We intend to advance the research agenda on the judiciary by bringing research on conflict resolution in constitutional courts closer to that on the mobilization of laws by interest groups and social movements. The Public Hearings (PAs) held by the Supreme Court are analyzed as strategic arenas for processing contentious issues in which diverse actors have opportunities to contribute to legal practices. The central objective of the article is to identify the mechanisms of connection and transmission of deliberations present in the public hearings held by the Supreme Court (STF) in the period from 2007 to 2019. The research problem was formulated with the purpose of investigating and analyzing how civil society acts within the Supreme Court. Finally, this article's main result confirms civil society organizations as the main connector of the APs held at the STF, as they represent about 40% of the organizations present, simultaneously, in more than two hearings.

La Sala de lo Contencioso-Administrativo del Tribunal Supremo resuelve el recurso ordinario núm. 659/2017 interpuesto por varias personas afectadas por la disolución del Parlamento de Cataluña, acordada por el Real Decreto 946/2017, de 27 de octubre. Este hace efectivas las medidas contempladas en el Acuerdo del Pleno del Senado, de 27 de octubre de 2017, a partir del Acuerdo del Consejo de Ministros de 21 de octubre de 2017, como consecuencia de la aplicación del artículo 155 de la Constitución. Dicha aplicación suscita varias dudas interpretativas que son resueltas por el Tribunal Supremo en esta sentencia, y más detalladamente por el Tribunal Constitucional en su Sentencia 89/2019, de 2 de julio, al resolver el recurso de inconstitucionalidad 5884-2017 interpuesto por más de cincuenta diputados del Grupo Parlamentario Unidos Podemos-En Comú Podem-En Marea del Congreso de los Diputados contra el citado acuerdo del Pleno del Senado. Se considera que esta aplicación del artículo 155 ha sido procedente, y por ello esta sentencia, así como la Sentencia del Tribunal Supremo aquí comentada, son desestimatorias.

According to the European Court of Human Rights, administrative sanctions of a criminal nature are entitled to be "reviewed by a higher tribunal" under Article 2 of Protocol No. 7 to the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms. This means that, in the case of judgments delivered in sole instance by the Spanish National Court or High Courts of Justice, the Supreme Court would become the reviewing body through the appeal in cassation. To this end, the most recent case law of the Supreme Court recognises an additional presumption of objective cassation interest for these cases. Notwithstanding this, the presumption will not determine the appeal's admission in all cases. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The Third Chamber of the Spanish Supreme Court has adopted a broad interpretation of the nature of the Personal Property Registry (Registro de Bienes Muebles), considering it a register of ownership for all purposes. This means that, from a tax perspective, variable Stamp Duty (Impuesto sobre Actos Jurídicos Documentados) may accrue when public deeds are executed that transfer movable property that may be registrable. However, in our opinion, the approach adopted by the Supreme Court may not fit with the regulations governing the Personal Property Registry as they have been interpreted by the Directorate-General for Legal Certainty and Public Faith. In this article we analyse statements issued by the Supreme Court, the applicable registry regulations and the possible effects of this landmark taxation case, in particular on the accrual of variable Stamp Duty.

El presente trabajo tiene por objeto analizar la evolución normativa y jurisprudencial experimentada por el Impuesto sobre el Valor de la Producción de Energía Eléctrica desde su creación a través de la Ley 15/2012, de 27 de diciembre, pasando por los múltiples pronunciamientos de los tribunales de justicia (y, en particular, del Tribunal Supremo), a través de los cuales se han analizado cuestiones tales como la coexistencia del gravamen con impuestos armonizados como el Impuesto Especial sobre la Electricidad, su eventual declaración de inconstitucionalidad por violación de los principios de igualdad y capacidad económica o el surgimiento de situaciones de doble imposición derivadas de su aplicación en relación con tributos locales como el Impuesto sobre Actividades Económicas, y concluyendo con la aprobación del Real Decreto-Ley 15/2018, de 5 de octubre, de medidas urgentes para la transición energética y la protección de los consumidores, que redujo al 0% el anterior tipo de gravamen del 7% correspondiente al Impuesto durante un período de seis meses en los ejercicios de 2018 y 2019.

Se realiza en este trabajo un estudio de máxima actualidad acerca de la necesidad de incorporar legalmente en nuestro ordenamiento la regulación de la cláusula rebus sic stantibus, solicitada por diversos sectores a raíz de la crisis acontecida por el Coronavirus y las restricciones que ha conllevado el Estado de Alarma. Para ello, se analizarán las diversas regulaciones existentes en diferentes textos nacionales e internacionales, así como la postura mantenida por nuestro Tribunal Supremo sobre este mecanismo, con el fin de realizar finalmente unas consideraciones sobre si realmente tal regulación es necesaria o no en nuestro ordenamiento, así como las ventajas que la misma podría conllevar.

The Supreme Court has recently passed several judgments on the right of first refusal over disputed credits. This article analyses the grounds of those judgments (including the scope and requirements for the right to apply) and its practical implications from a procedural standpoint, among which it is worth noting that this right does not apply to the sale of credit portfolios.

This paper analyzes recent rulings of the Spanish Supreme Court that show an advance in the environmental protection of water. They require also the strengthening of the resources put at service of Public Water Administration after years of cutbacks. The effect of these rulings however can have both positive and negative impacts on the state of conservation of spanish watercourses. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Ram Janmbhoomi (birth place of Lord Rama) is the most controversial dispute of the independent India. The dispute was existing in pre-independence era but after independence dispute has changed the direction and condition of Indian political system. There was claim that mosque was built after the demolition of Ram temple. This dispute was so intense that it brought the incident of demolition of mosque in 1992. After demolition suit was filed from both the side: Muslim and Hindu. The decision of apex court on civil suit came after 27 years. The apex court took the cognizance of Archaeological Survey of India (ASI) report to decide the claim of parties. This paper aims to give a brief background of Ramjanmbhoomi dispute; explore evidentiary value of expert opinion; whether archaeology is science or art; to evaluate the evidentiary value of archaeological report prepared by ASI through evacuation in the judgement. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

El recurso de amparo constitucional es un instrumento en manos del Tribunal Constitucional español: muchos de los problemas que padece no son debidos al cauce procesal, sino a la institución misma (creada junto a una pirámide judicial presidida por el Tribunal Supremo) y a conceptos teóricos desfasados: la teoría kelseniana es insuficiente para explicar un Tribunal constitucional con potestades para amparar los derechos fundamentales de los ciudadanos revisando las sentencias de los Tribunales judiciales. A partir de estas premisas, se ofrece una reflexión sobre distintos aspectos de la jurisdicción constitucional de amparo: los hechos y su prueba, la interpretación de la legalidad constitucional y “ordinaria”, la reparación del derecho vulnerado, la admisión de recursos (recientemente reformado en profundidad por la Ley Orgánica 6/2007) y las deficiencias de la economía del proceso

The article presents an analysis of the judgments of the Supreme Court Criminal Chamber passed in 2018 as a result of resolving legal issues that require fundamental interpretation of statute (Article 441 § 1 CPC), raising serious doubts concerning the interpretation of the provisions of law (Article 82 § 1 of the Act on the Supreme Court) or causing discrepancies in case law concerning the interpretation of the provisions of law that are grounds for adjudication (Article 83 § 1 of the Act on the Supreme Court) within criminal procedure law. Resolving the legal issues referred to it, the Supreme Court held that: the correction of an obvious editorial error consisting in the different transcription of a penalty amount in words and digits is admissible (Article 105 § 1 CPC); a prosecutor may take a decision to use evidence in criminal proceedings that was obtained as a result of surveillance ordered on an authorised body's request in relation to another offence prosecuted ex officio or a fiscal offence other than the offence covered by the surveillance order, but only when ordering surveillance is admissible in relation to this offence (Article 168b CPC); a repeated decision on the refusal to instigate preparatory proceedings or on their termination was not subject to an appeal pursuant to the legal circumstances at that time (Article 330 § 2 CPC); the acquittal or discontinuation of criminal proceedings and referring a case for rehearing is possible based on the ne peius rule (Article 454 § 1 CPC); an adjudicating court that hears a complaint about quashing a judgment of the first-instance court and referring a case for rehearing is limited to examining whether the default recognised by an appellate court constitutes grounds for cassation (Article 539a § 1 and § 3 CPC); an appellate court may issue a cumulative sentence for the first time or rule it in an amount different from the one imposed by a court of first instance (Article 568a § 2 CPC); a fee is charged for a motion in penalty enforcement proceedings to append an enforcement clause filed by a person other than the one indicated in an enforcement title to whom the entitlement was transferred after the title occurred (Article 25 § 1 PEC); a complaint about a ruling on refusal to admit a motion to develop in writing and deliver an appellate court's sentence justification issued in cases concerning petty offences is inadmissible (Article 109 § 1 POPC); proceedings before a given instance court's same bench are continued in case the provisions on a court bench are amended (Article 30 of the Act of 27 September 2013); every partner of a general partnership is obliged to provide an authorised body with information who was entitled to drive or use their vehicle in a particular period (Article 78 para. 5 LRT). In addition, the Court explained the requirements that must be met in order to ask the Supreme Court legal questions on issues that need fundamental interpretation (Article 441 § 1 CPC) and cause discrepancies in case law concerning the interpretation of the provisions that are grounds for adjudication (Article 83 § 1 of the Act on the Supreme Court).
