CORVA, María Angélica. Who judges those who judge? The Prosecution of Magistrates in the Province of Buenos Aires (1821-1878). Rev. IUS [online]. 2019, vol.13, n.43, pp.91-122. ISSN 1870-2147.

The objective of our work is to determine the changes in those responsible and in the procedure of the indictment of judges accused of a crime in the exercise of their duties. The attention is focused on the trajectory of the Normative Statements of Guarantees, for the magistrate as administrator of justice and for society as recipient of that Justice, through the Regulations and Constitutional texts, with the corresponding debates. In the context of the exposed Political Doctrines and the institution finally accredited, we will try to delve into the political experience of the society prior to the Constitutional Charter, through a case initiated against a judge who, accused by the press of appropriating inheritance funds, was processed by his peers. We will then determine the steps to the definition of the Trial Jury by analyzing the Constituent and Legislative Debates.

Palabras llave : Prosecution of Magistrates; Judicial Government; Judiciary; Public Opinion; Province of Buenos Aires.
