Uribe y Paloma Valencia anuncian tutela para frenar emergencia económica: “es el único recurso inmediato”

TL;DR

  • Centro Democrático will file a tutela lawsuit to stop the National Government's economic emergency decree.
  • Senator Paloma Valencia will file the constitutional recourse.
  • Former president Álvaro Uribe Vélez considers the tutela the only immediate recourse.
  • The Constitutional Court will begin reviewing the decree on January 13.
  • Presidential candidate Abelardo de la Espriella has also filed a lawsuit against the decree.
  • De la Espriella's lawsuit argues the decree lacks justification from supervening or extraordinary events.
  • The lawsuit requests the decree be declared invalid and its effects be provisionally suspended.
  • There is a call for magistrates to convene extraordinarily during year-end recess to accelerate the case.
