Lawyer María Alejandra Díaz suspended for disrespect towards the Electoral Chamber

Lawyer María Alejandra Díaz suspended for disrespect towards the Electoral Chamber

The Constitutional Chamber declared an appeal for protection against the National Electoral Council inadmissible because, according to the challengers, it did not publish the results of the presidential elections of July 28, where candidate Nicolás Maduro emerged the winner. Parallel to this, the magistrates sanctioned María Alejandra Díaz Marín, the lawyer who assisted those who filed the appeal for protection.

Such a decision is contained in ruling number 0603 of the Constitutional Chamber, written by its president, Judge Tania D’Amelio Cardiet.

The amparo action was filed last September by Oscar Figuera, Andrés Giussepe, José Luis Ibrahim Este, Yul Yabour, Carlos Ojeda Falcón, Eduardo Sánchez, Juan Barreto Cipriani and Enrique Octavio Márquez Pérez, assisted by lawyer María Alejandra Díaz Marín.

Agreed fine

The magistrates determined that the amparo action was reckless and for this reason they imposed a fine on the lawyer Díaz Marín “equivalent to one hundred times the official exchange rate of the highest value currency, established by the Central Bank of Venezuela, by the conduct evidenced in this decision.

The magistrates warned that if the fined lawyer fails to pay within the established period, “such sanction may be increased between a third and half of the total fine.”

The Chamber also made the decision to order the Bar Association of Díaz Marín to peremptorily initiate the respective disciplinary procedure in order to apply the sanction that corresponds to said lawyer, “according to the seriousness of the present facts.” .

But while the disciplinary procedure begins and ends, the magistrates decided to temporarily suspend the lawyer María Alejandra Díaz Marín from professional practice, “given the serious allegations raised in the present constitutional protection action, which question and disrespect the power held by the Electoral Chamber and the Constitutional Chamber of the Supreme Court of Justice, and also intend to generate anxiety and commotion in the population.”
