La función unificadora del Consejo de Estado en la reforma del Código de Procedimiento Administrativo y de lo Contencioso Administrativo

Abstract

Bill 07-19, containing the reform of the Code of Administrative Procedure and Administrative Litigation (hereinafter CPACA), submitted to Congress in October 2019, aims to reform the current code (Law 1437 of 2011) in the part concerning the litigation procedure, by making regulatory adjustments that, in one of its axes, are intended to reduce the overload on the cases heard by Councillors of State as trial judges - with the ultimate aim of enabling them to act as a unifying body for jurisprudence, by carrying out this task without the pressure of minimum quotas of judgments in ordinary proceedings - and, in a second axis, they are intended to fill the procedural gaps that have hampered the work of administering justice.
