two-month strike, suspension of the administration of justice and the inconvenience of the blackouts to all legitimate operators, it seems, has spawned a lightning box. the community that gathers hostility the most in this industry even before the protest: lawyers of the administration of justice (J). Forensic secretary from the past January 24 maintain a steady pulse, which may expire in the next few hours, so that Ministry of Justice give the green light to the salary improvements you committed a year ago.
“He is a body very well prepared professionals but no desire to work». «They make a flag they have 600 authorizations but 597 authorizations and consignments, letters of rogatory and Press the signature button. “What the Ministry has to do is redefine their functionality and take away what they don’t really do, or ask them to do what they charge.
These are some of the statements that come out of the mouths of Justice officials when asked about their duties on paper, regardless of which jurisdiction they carry out their duties. patrons and final administrators of judicial offices.
“Legal security”
“Our goal is to establish legal certainty.” This is how a forensic lawyer summarizes the reason for the existence of this body, which few people have subjugated. Expiration date. And he adds: “We’re there to check that everyone, including the judges, is meeting their obligations. If we disappeared, Justice would be shit.
Managers, processors and assistants like the LAJ don’t see it that way, the only difference being that the former is subordinate to the Generalitat and the latter to the ministry. “If the judge or officials of the general organs are missing, the court collapses. The non-existent LAJ doesn’t even show it,” he said. they add.
This is a harsh argument that many public servants agree with, but who are quick to clear it up. generalization is always unfair. And even dare to give Names and surnames of LAJs who can never be said to have not fulfilled their duties with dedication and responsibility. “But they are the minority,” they insist.
“Of course there are those who do not do their job. Because there are officers and judges I wouldn’t hire if I had a private company. But it depends on the people, and therefore the work of the collective cannot be questioned. In fact, those who do not know what we are doing now as a result of this strike already know,” one lawyer admits like others: communication strategy failed ensuring that legal operators and citizens understand “the reason for our struggle and the importance of our duties”.
Tasks While the majority of authorities argued that forensic lawyers empowered them, the LAJ business guideThe 176 pages, in which all the functions of the judicial authority are defined and allocated, “and the LAJ is basically, verify what administrators, handlers, and legal aid are doing. This is our responsibility,” they say.
Such are the records and changes in the Siraj, the liquidation of sentences or the writing of attestation and testimonies, among other things, jobs that, judging by the positions found on the subject, no one can assume is theirs. “Wave public belief records of hearings in which they managed to be exempted from entering and which in most cases were handed out without seeing, which was in fact more of a criminal act. pure faith», ironically.
Door
“As managers of the office, LAJs are doors we all have to go through. And if they close, no one can get in or out. As with the strike, when the majority did not stop working and not even teaching lawyers or solicitors of procedures or notifying suspensions even when they are people who have to come from outside the province or even from the provinces,” complains an official.
“We don’t question their right to strike, we question what they want: I think they get paid well and They cannot expect much the same accusation as a judge or prosecutor because neither responsibility nor access is the same.» points to another processor with 33 years of experience behind it and complaining about it. “They hand over everything. And to train is one thing, to delegate is another..
They say they’re tired of “even doing the statistics we put out and write down the jobs that demand productivity,” giving the impression that these “dislikers” of the Justice Administration will find a place to go. After the strike, they themselves will not be very kind when you have to face a situation of collapse that requires and is necessary to step in. arbitration contingency plans.
“I think they didn’t calibrate properly what they were causing with their protests,” one processor says. “Even though they got their request, they were very hurt at the image level”, judgment.
“We had to do this. For Honor», a lawyer concludes.
