The decision enables a civil claim for alleged harm contingent on a conviction.

Overview

  • The Universidad Complutense de Madrid formally personated as an injured party in the case at the invitation of Judge Juan Carlos Peinado.
  • This status allows the university to seek civil reparations for presumed damage only if the court issues a guilty verdict.
  • The investigation concerns the Transformación Social Competitiva chair and a master's program co-directed by Begoña Gómez at the university.
  • Evidence gathering remains active, including earlier judicial orders analyzing call logs and confirming domain records relevant to the probe.
  • The proceedings continue as the judicial watchdog CGPJ conducts preliminary inquiries into the investigating judge's conduct.
