Peru Courts Expand Access Efforts as Argentine Provinces Push Judicial Appointments

The moves signal a concerted focus on strengthening justice delivery.

Overview

  • In Santa Fe, the Legislative Assembly approved 88 nominations for judges, prosecutors and defenders in one session and declared inadmissible a challenge by ex‑fiscal Alejandro Rodríguez.
  • In Santa Cruz, lawmakers advanced two Superior Court appointments, including ex‑governor Sergio Acevedo, after a disputed sitting that proceeded despite judicial attempts to halt the vote.
  • Peru’s judiciary intensified modernization in Lambayeque as a national IT team audited networks and data centers and recommended fiber backbones, higher‑capacity internet—200 Mbps in Jaén—and reorganization of communications rooms.
  • Access initiatives ramped up across Peru with a four‑day multisector mission to Tres Fronteras in Loreto, a simultaneous ‘Llapanchikpaq Justicia’ fair set for San Cristóbal–Calacoa in Moquegua, and itinerant services plus marathon hearings in Tumbes.
  • Capacity building and outreach continued with trainings for Jueces de Paz in Lambayeque and Ayacucho, anti‑trafficking and gender‑violence awareness actions in Chiclayo and Chimbote, and a weekly family‑law guidance program on Radio Cutervo.
