Ruling Concerning Right Of Promotores Fiscales Sustitutos To Practice Law Privately
Resumen del Libro
Copy of a ruling, dated Nov. 4, 1865 in Madrid, by Antonio Canovás del Castillo of the Ministerio de Ultramar, to the regente of the Havana Audiencia, with a copy forwarded to the regente of the Manila Audiencia, Emilio García Triviño, concerning the right of promotores fiscales sustitutos to practice law. Although regulations forbid promotores from practicing law privately, the same prohibition does not apply to substitute promotores, given the differences in their job responsibilities. Furthermore, no attorney would agree to serve as a substitute promotor under such restrictions. Consequently, substitute promotores may carry on their law practice except when they have been specifically called upon to serve in the Audiencia.
