From today on the Plaza de Galicia in A Coruña, at the gates of Superior Court of Justice, in the Palace of Justice, a badge will remember to the magistrates of the Administrative Litigation Chamber who, 35 years ago, issued the first sentence written entirely in Galician after centuries of the absolute disappearance of the language in the judicial sector.
Ricardo Leirós Freire, Claudio Movilla Álvarez and Gonzalo de la Huerga Fidalgo, magistrates of the Territorial Court of A Coruña, issued that sentence that today has been vindicated, also remembering that, to date, only 5% of the sentences are written in Galician, the majority language of the population residing in Galicia. This despite the existence of legal protection
However, the prosecutor Carlos Varela, member of the Irmandade Xurídica Galega, attributes this situation to a simple question: “It seems that it is rather a matter of will, in this aspect our brotherhood has been bringing together different professionals from the legal encourage their use in their profession “.
From the Irmandade Xurídica Galega they have sued the Xunta during this act to make it easier for all justice personnel to work more in Galician, that it does so especially by improving the technological tools, essential for the promotion of the language.
