Officials of the Administration of Justice held a new rally this Thursday in protest on the facade of the judicial building, located on Avenida Aragón in Arrecife.
Dressed in black t-shirts with the message "without justice there is no right" and behind a banner that read: "For our professional dignity and defense of our rights. Government listen, justice is in struggle."
The unions CSIF, Comisiones Obreras, STAJ and UGT issued a joint statement this past Wednesday in which they warned of "a higher phase" of this strike and whose "consequences were difficult to foresee" in the indefinite strike of the workers of the Administration of Justice.
"It is estimated that 200,000 trials have been suspended and four million judicial actions have not been carried out" throughout the country, the text reveals.
The main demand is directed to the Ministry of Justice, led by Pilar Llop, whom they demand "once and for all" to "sit down to negotiate with the judicial bodies that have more reasons to carry out a strike and to whom she has paid less attention."
At the same time, they have stressed that "after threatening an indefinite strike, judges and prosecutors entered like an elephant in a china shop and without carrying out a single day of strike, the minister and career judge, Pilar LLop, received them with immediacy and a red carpet, taking advantage of a situation of judicial paralysis that had been caused by the officials," the statement denounces.
"Needless to say, the capacity to put the administration of justice in a crisis situation is 90 times greater than that of prosecutors, judges and lawyers, and yet, she has given them preference and agreements," she threatens.
The unions describe the treatment towards judges and prosecutors as "classist", "differential" and "privileged". Among the demands, they ask to define "well" the functions of work, their mobility, the choice of destination, "and another series of demands related to a certain guarantee that the provision of services is not exposed to abuses of power, arbitrary decisions and political interests that have nothing to do with the interests of citizens."
