Emilio Calatayud proposed as Adopted Son of Granada

Francis Rodríguez, president of the Diputación de Granada, has proposed that magistrate Emilio Calatayud be honored as an Adopted Son of the Province of Granada. The proposal will be submitted to the institution's Commission of Honors and Distinctions.

Calatayud is recognized for his long career at the helm of the Juvenile Court No. 1 of Granada. The distinction acknowledges his lifelong dedication to justice and a professional trajectory deeply linked to the region. His approach to juvenile justice has emphasized responsibility, education, and social reintegration.

Beyond his judicial duties, Calatayud has been noted for his social and pedagogical impact, participating in educational conferences and activities for families and youth. His rulings have often focused on social work and reparation to help minors understand the consequences of their actions and seek new opportunities.
