On September 11, Cristina Kirchner must return to the Argentine State. Chamber IV of the Federal Chamber of Criminal Cassation – Mariano Borinsky, Diego Barroetaveña and Gustavo Hornos – will begin the hearing, will listen to the Prosecutor’s Office and Defense and then will have five days to resolve how much is the confiscation that Cristina Fernández de Kirchner must face in road.
Judges can ask short questions. Prosecutor Mario Villar and the defense of Carlos Beraldi will intervene. The focus is the amount. The Federal Oral Court No. 2 set a provisional confiscation of $ 84,835,227,378 in 202 and held it to update when the conviction was firm, made on June 17, 2025. With expertise of the Court the account rose to $ 684,990,350,139,86. The defense challenged the methodology and use of CPI. Does not deny the confiscation; discuss the calculation and the result.
In the oral trial the prosecutors Diego Luciani and Sergio Mola acted, who requested immediate execution of the assets of all the convicted and rejected the objections in addition. In Cassation Villar will exhibit. On the other hand, Alberto Beraldi and Ariel Llernovoy argue that the Tof2 confuses criminal confuse with civil reparation and that the debate for the quantum must go to the civil and commercial jurisdiction. How: the Tof2 – Jorge Gorini, Rodrigo Giménez Uriburu and Andrés Basso – updated the amount and, although he granted the appeal, clarified that this does not suspend the execution, with auction if ordered.
For Luciani and Mola the confiscation is not optional; It is an obligation derived from the final sentence. The defense: in addition to requesting the suspension due to lack of funds, Cristina Kirchner questions the update index and states that only 6% of the total would correspond. He also requested to incorporate proof of his goods and quote Máximo and Florencia Kirchner. Ask to individualize responsibilities.
Context: The former president meets house arrest and was intimidated by the execution judge, Gorini, to pay in ten business days, under the warning of executing goods. The measure reached Lázaro Báez, José López, Nelson Periotti and others. The defense says that without a definition of the amount and its method they should not advance embargoes. If cassation endorses the figure, the immediate execution requested by the Prosecutor’s Office progresses; If it retouches it, everyone makes numbers again. There the central is no longer the speech, it is the number in the form.
