Overview
- The order covers Gómez, Moncloa assistant Cristina Álvarez and Madrid’s government delegate Francisco Martín Aguirre, who are summoned on Saturday at 18:00 in Court No. 41 in Plaza de Castilla.
- The judge incorporates emails from former UCM vice rector Juan Carlos Doadrio to meet the verisimilitude threshold after September statements in which Gómez answered only her defense.
- Government ministers voiced surprise and defended the appeals system, while Judge Peinado filed new civil claims for alleged attacks on his honor, including one targeting Interior Minister Fernando Grande-Marlaska.
- Beyond the jury piece, the investigation keeps open alleged offenses of tráfico de influencias, corrupción en los negocios, intrusismo and misappropriation of software, with multiple appeals pending before the Audiencia Provincial beginning deliberations on 29 September and 6 October.
- In separate cases, Valencia’s Fiscalía and the Audiencia rejected fresh bids to impute the CHJ president and the government’s delegate over the 29‑O floods, and in Peru an oral trial opened for ex-mayor Susana Villarán as a Comas school-abuse complaint advanced under police investigation.
