💨 Abstract

The Argentine Supreme Court unanimously upheld a six-year prison sentence and lifetime ban from public office for Cristina Fernández de Kirchner in the "Vialidad" case. Judges Rosatti, Rosenkrantz, and Lorenzetti rejected her defense's arguments, affirming the 2022 conviction. The Court also confirmed her acquittal on charges of illicit association. Kirchner's supporters await her public response, while legal experts note there are no further appeal options in Argentina.
