Casación Seeks to Speed Up Cuadernos Trial With Three In-Person Hearings Each Week

A Supreme Court justice urged the trial judges to work through the summer to quicken the case.

Overview

  • Casación convened TOF 7 today to negotiate an accelerated schedule, bringing together judges Enrique Méndez Signori, Fernando Canero and Germán Castelli with Daniel Petrone and Diego Barroetaveña.
  • Ricardo Lorenzetti publicly pressed the tribunal to continue during the judicial recess to avoid drawn‑out proceedings.
  • The case remains in the indictment‑reading stage under a mostly virtual format with Thursday hearings, with an additional Tuesday session set to begin on November 25.
  • Casación offered logistical support including the AMIA courtroom at Comodoro Py, and larger venues such as Costa Salguero and Tecnópolis are under evaluation.
  • TOF 7 reaffirmed its autonomy in organizing the process and cautioned against external interference as the trial involves nearly 90 defendants and more than 600 witnesses, including Cristina Kirchner.
