The Supreme Court of Argentina is set to begin deliberations on the executive branch's decree appointments of judges Ariel Lijo and Manuel García-Mansilla. The court will make a decision on March 6. Former President Mauricio Macri has publicly criticized the appointments, stating that the decision by President Javier Milei is 'not correct.' The court has already sworn in García-Mansilla but postponed a ruling on Lijo. Judge Juan Carlos Maqueda expressed concerns about the appointments, suggesting they may border on unconstitutionality. This issue arises amid ongoing discussions about legislative amendments, with Justice Minister Flávio Dino emphasizing the urgency for Congress to reach an agreement, citing over 80 investigations related to amendments currently under review by the Supreme Court.
