Santa Fe Supreme Court judicial appointment

Overview

In August 2026, the government of Santa Fe appointed attorney Diego Maciel as a new minister of the provincial Supreme Court of Justice. The appointment, formalized by Governor Maximiliano Pullaro via decree, was intended to fill the vacancy created by the resignation of Eduardo Spuler.

By September 2026, Maciel was officially sworn in. During his inauguration, he emphasized the necessity of respecting constitutional mechanisms and maintaining a balance between state powers, noting that the judiciary must exercise its control function without overstepping into the attributes of other branches.

Concurrently, federal judge Aldo Alurralde, who had previously been a candidate for the court, indicated he had no updates regarding a potential appointment and would continue his duties at the Federal Court of Reconquista.
