The Judiciary definitively files Bolaños' complaints against Judge Peinado
The CGPJ rejects the minister's appeal and denies that the decision not to sanction the instructor in the 'Begoña case' lacks "lack of motivation"
The Supreme Council of the Judiciary (CGPJ) has officially archived the complaints filed by Minister Félix Bolaños against judge Juan Carlos Peinado regarding his behavior as a witness in relation to the Cristina Álvarez contract, which belonged to Begoña Gómez, the wife of Pedro Sánchez. The permanent committee of the CGPJ rejected the appeal Bolaños filed against the council's decision not to punish Peinado, taking into account various factors, including the fact that the minister claimed the CGPJ's disciplinary authority archive lacked "lack of motivation".
The council's document provides a thorough justification for the lack of significance in the reported events that Bolaños had the opportunity to review, therefore, there is no defense. Two out of the seven members in the permanent committee submitted a separate vote against the decision made by their colleagues.
