The Superior Court of Justice of Catalonia (TSJC) has admitted the particular legitimacy of the father of two children enrolled in a community institute in the case of the forced execution of at least 25 percent of Spanish in the entire educational system of the Generalitat. The regional court, however, has not admitted the request of the Civil Guard Justice Professional Association (Jucil), which had also requested the forced execution of the court order.
In an interlocutory dated May 13 and released this Thursday, the Contentious Administrative Chamber of the TSJC has recognized the legitimacy of a father who requested the forced execution of the judgment of the autonomous court of December 16, 2020, which obliges the Ministry of Education to modify the educational system so that all schools and institutes teach at least one core subject in Spanish, while the teaching model is based on bilingualism.
The father’s petition was presented on April 7 and the Generalitat opposed his being considered a legitimate party in the case. The State Attorney, for its part, did admit that the father should be accepted in the case but, in any case, only to resolve the particular situation and not extend to the entire system. In the case of Jucil, requested on April 12 before the TSJC and resolved in the same interlocutory as that of the parent, both the Generalitat and the State Attorney rejected its legitimacy.
Thus, with this decision of the magistrates of the Fifth Section of the TSJC, which has had a particular vote to which another of the members of the court has adhered, the father of two children joins the legitimacy in the open case for the forced execution after the legitimation of the Assembly by a Bilingual School (AEB) and whose term, established by the TSJC itself, for the Ministry of Education to give the orders to meet the 25%, ends at the end of this month.
