The City is preparing to request the seizure of the Nation's bank accounts for failing to comply with the Court's ruling

While Kirchnerism maintains its offensive in Congress with the impeachment trial against the ministers of the Supreme Court, the City government is preparing to advance from Wednesday -when judicial activity returns- in the claim for non-compliance with the ruling it ordered to the Nation to pay 2.95% of co-participating funds.

The measures are evaluated by the City Attorney General, represented by Gabriel Astarloa, who awaits the restart of judicial activity on February 1, to claim before the Court that what was ruled more than a month ago be complied with.

Within the battery of measures that are contemplated in these execution trials, the City government does not rule out, through its Attorney General, including a request for fines to be applied to officials who, by order of Alberto Fernández, decided to fail to comply with the sentence of the highest court.

On December 21, the Court ruled in favor of the City of Buenos Aires, allowing a precautionary measure in which it ordered the national Executive to restore to the Buenos Aires administration the co-participating funds cut in 2020.

The Court understood that the claim was admissible and, on the other hand, that there was damage caused to the coffers of the administration of Horacio Rodríguez Larreta -which led to the creation of new taxes-, whose increase should be avoided.

Based on these two pillars, the national government was ordered to start paying -the day after the ruling- 2.95% of co-participating funds (the CABA claims that the original percentage of 3.5% be returned, but that discussion has not yet begun to be analyzed).

During the month that elapsed since the ruling, the Nation decided not to comply with the ruling.

"The Government is selective in deciding which part of the Court's ruling complies and which not, because 2.95% continue to not comply but the other letter of the measure does comply," Buenos Aires government sources told Clarín.

This money will also be claimed along with the co-participating funds under the new percentage that have not yet been paid.
