Among them, that of Pedro Sánchez himself, who thought-about “strange” that the Justice of the Peace Juan Carlos Peinado I’d point out it throughout the marketing campaign for the Europeans. “Usually, the unwritten rule has been followed of not issuing resolutions that could condition the normal development of an electoral campaign and, therefore, the vote of citizens. In this case, it is evident that this practice has not been respected,” Sánchez wrote in his letter to the citizen.

“This instructor,” responds the choose, “does not know any precept of the Spanish Constitution, nor of the Organic Law of the Judicial Power, nor of the Law of Criminal Procedure, nor of the Organic Law of the General Electoral Regime or of any other “legislation that forestalls persevering with the momentum of any ongoing instruction.”

BARRABS

The magistrate includes this response in the ruling whose objective is to actually agree to take a statement from the key businessman as a witness, Juan Carlos Barrabsfrom the hospital where he is admitted due to his recent health problems.

The postponement occurred at the request of Gómez's lawyer, Antonio Camacho, who had prior commitments on the initially scheduled date.
