The Supreme Court’s spokesman, Areopagite Panagiotis Lymberopoulos, a newspaper report under the heading “The Supreme Court rapporteur in favor of the funds and against borrowers”, which was also reproduced by the electronic press. This case, as noted, is pending in the plenary of the Supreme Court.

In particular, Mr Lymberopoulos, after referring to misinformation, clarifies that the case in question “has not yet been determined the date of conference and the rapporteur has not yet drawn up or otherwise announced his recommendation to the plenary of the plenary officers”.

The Supreme Court’s announcement:

“On the occasion of publications by the printed and electronic type regarding the leak of the designated Head-Lawyer in a case of great interest, which is pending before the Supreme Court plenary, we inform that the date has not yet been determined by the Conference and the Rapporteur Officers.

We inform the citizens of avoiding misinformations that the procedure before the Supreme Court plenary in the Civil Procedure includes specific stages: (a) the discussion of the case in a public meeting in which the parties are placed and the Supreme Court’s prosecutor announces his proposal to the Court of Justice. Only the judges who had participated in the discussion of the case. The Conference is scheduled for the shortest possible time, in relation to the other inelastic obligations of the Court (meetings of the Departments, the Supreme Judicial Council and the plenary session on his decisions, which specifically included this year’s evaluation and judgment) Conference on his written recommendation and follows an exchange of views between the post -judges and (d) a vote is carried out by the youngest to the earliest judge in order to ensure (internal) independence and freedom in formulating the opinion. We note that the rapporteur’s suggestion and the conference are legally secret. No third party has the right to know them before the decision is published. For this reason, and in order to protect the judges from interventions in any way from anyone the new Criminal Code includes sanctions for protecting secrecy. Consequently, rumored “leaks” or news related to the outcome of any court of law do not actually correspond to reality.

Citizens must be aware that judicial and prosecutors of each grade freely shape their view, without being manipulated by internal or external factors, always subject to criticism, as institutionally determined.

Finally, it would be useful for justice all those who are dealing with her, if they are really interested, to respect her principles, without asterisks and exceptions and not to disrupt handling issues that they do not know. Those who insist on doing so, in addition to the reliability deficit, are at risk of being isolated in order to cancel behaviors aimed at benefits of undefined motivation. “
