The ruling party, made up of the front of all (FdT), continues the preparations to carry out the political trial against the judges of the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation, made up of the four magistrates, Horacio Rosatti, Carlos Rosenkrantz, Juan Carlos Maqueda and Ricardo Lorenzetti. The litigation in question is mainly due to the ruling of this judicial body against the legal dispute between the Nation and the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires (CABA) for co-participation.
