TSJ declares inadmissible request for nullity of the Onapre instructions
The Political-Administrative Chamber published two sentences this Saturday, with presentations by Judge Malaquías Gil Rodríguez. In these, the two demands presented by the Venezuelan universities in July were declared inadmissible.
The ruling imposes a fine “on each of the plaintiffs and their representatives in this matter, for fifty (50) times the official exchange rate of the currency with the highest value, established by the Central Bank of Venezuela.”
With this action, the TSJ rejected three demands. The first presented by the retired workers of the Public Ministry, who threatened to open a criminal investigation and imposed a fine on them for “the abusive exercise of a judicial action.” The second, the two presented by the study houses that were fined.
