New criticism from the Bar Association against the application of Ariel Lijo to the Court: “The problem is that all the records he has are bad”. “There must be something more here, because they cannot be so wrong," said the president of that entity, Alberto Garay.

The Bar Association based its rejection of Lije on the defense of the rule of law, republican values ​​and the independence of Justice. "[Those] principles would be affected by the appointment of a person who, as a federal judge, has shown signs of behavior that would be inconsistent with the essential public trust that those who the judiciary must awaken," they said.
