About

The Consejo General del Poder Judicial (CGPJ), or General Council of the Judiciary, is the governing body of the judiciary in Spain. It is responsible for ensuring the independence of the judiciary and overseeing its administration. Recent news articles highlight the CGPJ's role in collecting and publishing judicial statistics. Specifically, the CGPJ's statistics section released data showing an 11.7% decrease in divorce filings in 2025 compared to 2024. This decrease is attributed to a decline across all types of divorce filings. While the other article discusses rental market dynamics and insurance, the CGPJ is not directly involved. The CGPJ's statistical reports are relevant as they provide insights into societal trends and the workload of the Spanish judicial system, informing policy discussions and resource allocation.
