First ok from Commission, plenum vote on Wednesday (ANSA) The CSM is moving towards the reconfirmation of the leaders of the Supreme Court, after the sentence of the Council of State which canceled the appointment of the first president Pietro Curzio and his "deputy" Margherita Cassano, the first woman in the history of the judiciary to hold the role of president Deputy of the Supreme Court.

The CSM is moving towards the reconfirmation of the leaders of the Supreme Court, after the sentence of the Council of State which canceled the appointment of the first president Pietro Curzio and his "deputy" Margherita Cassano, the first woman in the history of the judiciary to hold the role of president Deputy of the Supreme Court.

This is the route indicated at the end of a meeting by the Commission for the management of the Palazzo dei Marescialli.

However, it was not a unanimous decision: four votes in favor against two abstentions.

On Wednesday it will be up to the plenum to express itself on the majority's proposal, approved with the clear aim of ensuring full legitimacy for Curzio in view of the inauguration ceremony of the judicial year scheduled for Friday in Cassation, in the presence of the head of state Sergio Mattarella, and in which the President of the Cassation is the protagonist with his report on the state of justice. If the groups were to vote as their representatives in the Commission did, the goal should be within reach for Curzio and Cassano. Although without the 'Bulgarian' majority who supported their appointment in 2020.

The hypothesis of an appeal to the United Sections of the Cassation due to lack of jurisdiction of the Council of State has been rejected from the beginning - a path taken unsuccessfully by Michele Prestipino, who with the CSM had his appointment as Rome prosecutor canceled from Palazzo Spada - in the Commission, two positions faced each other: that of those who believed that the "slap" of the highest body of administrative justice in the CSM should be repeated without any backtracking and with the utmost urgency, reshaping only the reasons in support of the appointments (something that then it was done); and that of those who instead contested merit and method, starting from the haste to give an answer without weighing with due attention the questions posed by the Council of State.

In the end, the president of the Commission Antonio D'Amato, the laity Fulvio Gigliotti (M5S) and Alessio Lanzi (Forza Italia) and the robed Alessandra Dal Moro (Area) voted in favor of the majority proposal.

On the other hand, the toga Sebastiano Ardita and the Unicost councilor Michele Ciambellini abstained.

But Angelo Spirito, the section president of the Cassation who obtained the annulment of the appointments of Curzio and Cassano by the State Council, is ready to do battle.

As his defender implies, the lawyer Franco Gaetano Scoca, who, before the vote of the Commission, warned the CSM to respect the rulings of Palazzo Spada.
