In the midst of the ongoing election process and the presidential definition, it is time to demand the defense of what little institutionality remains, possessed by the infestation of organized crime and its lawyers who have embedded themselves in entities that are now being questioned for their actions.

It cannot be allowed to violate constitutional and legal norms, according to the opinion of eminent lawyers, constitutionalists, academics and criminal experts, to try to impose decisions outside the legal system in order to protect political interests, thereby putting pressure to achieve impunity.

This is how some judges act, not all of them, who blatantly oppose the express law and make a clear ten from the legal system, protected by an administrative-disciplinary body, which instead prosecutes, suspends and dismisses judges who show their fight against corruption with their judgments.

The Council for Citizen Participation and the administrative and disciplinary body of the judiciary fell into a deep level of discredit due to questionable actions that were also questionable within these institutions. But they cared little and continued to mock the country, with an emergency plan for impunity, in the possible scenario of losing the second presidential term.

For this reason, professional associations of lawyers should not only complain, but also file lawsuits before the Constitutional Court, because institutions are at stake and Ecuador must resist this infestation of those convicted of corruption and their defenders.

The Constitutional Court must exercise its jurisdiction and stop these abuses by applying the applicable regulations. It should even lead to a dismissal as it happened in the recent past and thus create precedents in the face of so much arbitrariness and violation of legal and constitutional norms.

The Constitutional Court is a respected institution, although it has been criticized for certain controversial decisions, but it has also made decisions that were outstanding. It will be essential that you act in a timely manner so that you do not overlook the actions of judges and high officials who break the law.

It cannot be allowed to use insolence, illegality and unconstitutionality to try to break the shield placed around the work of the Transitional Participatory Council, which was led by a recognized and innocent citizen, who will fight for the country until its end. He had a popular mandate (2018) to perform extraordinary tasks, confirmed by the verdict of the Constitutional Court.

Nor can the administrative and disciplinary judicial body continue as it is, with most of its members being prosecuted for alleged serious irregularities and implementing a program that seeks to promote impunity.

How can these authorities guarantee a transparent, serious and unbiased selection process for domestic judges, and because of that they illegally extend the mandates of judges who did not even enter through a competition, and who actually have corruption cases in their hands and against them? processed vowels. What guarantees of impartiality can there be? (OR)
