Overview
- Luis Calvo announced his resignation in a Facebook post two weeks after the TSXG upheld his nine-year ban for administrative prevarication.
- The regional high court declared the ruling final on November 20 after no appeal was filed and instructed its execution through the Audiencia Provincial de Pontevedra.
- The TSXG partially accepted Calvo’s appeal by acquitting him of falsity in documents while maintaining the disqualification for prevarication.
- Calvo’s party, PAyJ, plans to retain control of the council, with the next on its electoral list identified as Isabel Alba Gómez, followed by Julio Taboada Lodeiro and Paz Gil Sobrado.
- In his message, Calvo accused BNG and PP of pushing for immediate enforcement of the ruling and attempting to sway two PAyJ councillors.
