the Republic and violated cardinal principles of the legal system.”66 50. Justices who had previously disqualified themselves from hearing the actions of unconstitutionality filed by the presumed victims (supra para. 43) intervened in the issue of Resolution No. 2382. Also, this Court was not informed and is unaware of whether the said resolution was issued in response to the filing of any action or contestation. D.4. Appeals for clarification filed in relation to Judgments Nos. 951 and 952 51. On January 4, 2010, the Prosecutor General filed appeals for clarification against Judgments Nos. 951 and 952 of December 30, 2009. When filing the appeals, he requested, inter alia, an indication of “which state organ would be responsible for implementing” the orders to reinstate Messrs. Ríos Ávalos and Fernández Gadea as justices of the Supreme Court of Justice.67 52. On February 1, 2010, Bonifacio Ríos Ávalos and Carlos Fernández Gadea filed separate appeals for clarification in relation to Judgment No. 951, and Judgment No. 952, respectively. In their appeals, they argued that the Constitutional Chamber “ha[d] failed to rule on the procedural costs […]; therefore, a ruling [was] important […] in order to make good this omission.”68 53. On September 2, 2019, the Constitutional Chamber of the Supreme Court of Justice delivered Judgment No. 737, declaring that the appeal for clarification filed by the Prosecutor General was “[inadmissible]” and admitting the appeal filed by Mr. Ríos Ávalos, both with regard to Judgment No. 951. The decision established that, with regard to the procedural costs, “each party sh[ould] cover its own expenses.”69 54. Regarding the appeals for clarification filed by the Prosecutor General and Mr. Fernández Gadea against Judgment No. 952, the case file contains no record that they have been decided.70 Cf.

On September 9, 2019, the Constitutional Chamber, in Judgment No. 738, “clarified, ex officio, Judgment No. 737,” to the effect that the appeals for clarification had been filed with regard to Judgment No. 951, and not as had been indicated erroneously.
