Why It Matters
The Ombudsman filed an appeal for protection against the Supreme Court's decision to provisionally suspend the law on grandchildren.
The Fourth Section of the Constitutional Court has decided to refer to the Plenary Session the decision on the admission or inadmissibility of the appeal for protection presented by the Ombudsman against the decision of the Supreme Court to provisionally suspend the law on grandchildren.
The TC speaker, Enrique Arnaldo, considers that Ángel Gabilondo's protection is premature, according to legal sources informing EL MUNDO.
The protection signed by the Ombudsman maintains that "the link between being Spanish and voting is indissoluble." "The possibility of depriving, temporarily or permanently, of this fundamental right is therefore very problematic from a fundamental rights perspective," states the Ombudsman.
