The Argentine government is focused on how to appeal a court ruling that suspended the application of 83 articles of labor law. The ruling, issued on Monday by the National Court of First Instance of Labor No. 63, came in response to a lawsuit filed by the General Confederation of Labor (CGT). The court decision ensures the continuity of all collective clauses and establishes that companies must maintain the withholding and deposit of the solidarity contributions agreed upon, which are essential for the functioning of trade union organizations. At the moment, it has not been definitively decided in which jurisdiction the appeal will be filed. Despite analysis within libertarian circles, the Milei administration is likely to take a risk and opt for the jurisdiction that previously rejected the CGT's request. It is noted that in La Libertad Avanza they recognize that they are not currently involved in the appeals process. Meanwhile, Federal Court No. 2 in San MartÃn issued a preliminary injunction suspending the application of Articles 131 and 133 of the law, adding complexity to the legal situation. A CGT leader expressed certainty that the ruling party will turn to the administrative court, which recently ruled in their favor. "We will not allow, under the pretext of modernization, to try to suffocate the unions and cut historical rights," said one of the leaders. "Defending the funding of our institution is defending the health of commerce families and our ability to protect wages across the country."
