Justice: 27 and 28 June strike by criminal lawyers

(ANSA) – ROME, JUN 14 – “To denounce the unacceptable compromise of constitutional rights that occurs every day in the courtrooms with the repeated changes in the composition of the colleges in a large number of trials” and also “to urge the Government and Parliament to assume immediate measures capable of resolving the distortions which have taken place in the system and thus reaffirm the mandatory nature of the principles of due process “. These are the objectives for which the Union of Italian Criminal Chambers proclaimed two days of abstention from hearings from 27 and 28 June, the day on which a national demonstration was also organized in Rome. In particular with the protest – which will be held throughout Italy with the sole exceptions of the Benevento and North Naples districts, where other abstentions from hearings have already been organized – the UCPI intends to denounce “the compromise of the accused’s right to be tried by the same judge who collected the evidence in the hearing “. It is “a procedural event that now occurs daily in the courtrooms – underlines the junta in the resolution that proclaimed the strike and that was sent to the head of state, the presidents of the Chamber and Senate, Prime Minister Draghi and the minister Cartabia – what a devastating effect of regressive interpretations of the procedural discipline, which allow to omit the renewal of the trial in case of change of the judge “.
