The Court of Cassation rejected an appeal and confirmed prosecutor Marcelo Vega to participate in the process against the Mendoza judge. The oral trial process of Judge Walter Bento, accused of granting prison benefits in exchange for bribes, advanced on Monday.

The court that must judge him is composed of the chambers Gretel Diamante, María Carolina Pereira and Eliana Rattá. The sole purpose of the preliminary hearing is to determine issues related to the organisation of the trial, such as the date, time and place.
