Fabiola Yañez Drops Madrid Case, Shifts Custody Fight to Argentina

The move consolidates the family-law dispute under Argentine jurisdiction.

Overview

  • Yañez instructed her Spanish attorney by email in late October to withdraw the civil filing that sought to establish her son Francisco’s residence in Madrid.
  • Following her September return, she enrolled Francisco in a Buenos Aires school, reinforcing his center of life in Argentina.
  • Custody, visitation, and child-support terms will now be determined by Argentine courts, with negotiations underway that include requests for a rented apartment with amenities, domestic staff, and school fees for 15 years.
  • A court order continues to provide Yañez with roughly 6 million pesos per month, funded from Alberto Fernández’s privileged pension.
  • The gender-violence case against Fernández remains active as Judge Daniel Rafecas now oversees the file after the removal of Judge Julián Ercolini, and Fernández publicly denies the allegations and characterizes the dispute as financial.
