Argentine judicial activity and international engagement

Overview

In early October, Argentine judicial officials gathered in San Martín de los Andes for the XXVI Meeting of Oral Court Judges. The event occurred amidst local protests from unions and social organizations, such as ATE and Partido Obrero, who were demonstrating against a Supreme Court ruling that repealed the Rural Land Law. The local Deliberative Council issued an institutional declaration of repudiation regarding that ruling.

By mid-October, the focus of Argentine judicial activity shifted toward international engagement. In Paris, Justice Minister Juan Bautista Mahiques led a delegation to discuss legal certainty regarding the Vaca Muerta energy basin with investors. Simultaneously, a delegation attended a summit in Vatican City focused on climate litigation and human rights, where participants signed the ‘Casina Pio IV Declaration on Access to Climate Justice,’ describing the climate emergency as an ‘existential threat.’
