The Government of Javier Milei sent this Monday to National Congress a series of reforms that aim to simplify the judicial procedures of processes such as express divorce, the withdrawal of funds from judicial deposits by court order, the publication of edicts, digitizing procedures, and giving greater efficiency to the General Archive of the Judicial Branch of the Nation.
This is a joint effort between the Ministry of Justice, which conducts Mariano Cúneo Libaronaand the Ministry of Deregulation and Transformation of the State, led by Federico Sturzenegger. It seeks to alleviate the burden on the judicial system, promote competition and freedom of judicial deposits and establish more efficient mechanisms with respect to the custody and disposition of assets subject to seizure in criminal cases.

What will be modified in the modernization of Justice
Thus, we seek to modify the Law 9667, Decree Law 3003, Decree Law 16005 and Decree Law 6848, that required paper procedures, now obsolete.
- Specifically, regarding Law 9667 Certain bureaucratic procedures will be eliminated to streamline processes, the tax established in article 6 will be repealed for each money order issued under the Law, and article 5 will be adapted to the Civil and Commercial Code.. In turn, The Registry of Universal Trials will be digitized to achieve greater efficiency, agility and transparency.
- Regarding the Judicial archives of the Federal Capital, it is a law decree from 1963, which means that it contains old and paper procedures. That’s why, yesand will digitize several procedures and files that were on paperto streamline the internal functioning of Justice. Besides, Article 10 will be adapted to the Civil and Commercial Code.
- In that line Changes were proposed to expand the options available for judicial deposits contemplated in Law 26,764.
- In addition, judicial deposits will be allowed in all public bankswhileand will allow judges to order that judicial deposits, with the consent of the parties involved, can be deposited in any institution of the financial system.
- As a consequence of the accumulated inflation of recent years, the purchasing power of the deposited sums fell, so It is stipulated that the Central Bank will impose guidelines for the remuneration of judicial deposits in pesos, which may be denominated, for example, in UVAs.
What is express divorce
One of the highest points of the new reform is the implementation of a simplified divorcewhich seeks that the spouses, through administrative divorce, dissolve their marriage bond by mutual agreementor a simpler, faster and cheaper way.
They will try to allow people to divorce in a similar way to the way they get married, which is carried out with a simple agreement of wills before the public official in charge of the Registry of the Civil Status and Capacity of Persons, plus the witnesses prescribed by law.
