We are pleased to announce that our Of Counsel, Luis Pérez Capitán, has contributed to the collective work “Sanctioning and Liquidation Procedures in Social Law: Actions of the Labor Inspectorate and the Labor Authority” with the authorship of the chapter “Defects in the Labor Administrative Sanctioning Procedure in Recent Judicial Doctrine.”
The book, published by Ediciones Laborum and directed by Professors Antonio V. Sempere Navarro, Francisco. Javier Fernández Orrico, and M.ª Teresa Marbán Pinilla, provides a comprehensive analysis of the administrative sanctioning and liquidation procedures carried out by the Labor Inspectorate and the labor authority in Spain. It examines all stages of the procedure in detail: from guiding principles and inspection activities to the initiation, investigation, and resolution of cases, while also incorporating the impact of the most recent case law.
The chapter authored by our Of Counsel, Luis Pérez Capitán, explores the position of Spanish courts regarding the different defects that may arise during the preliminary or evidentiary phases—such as expiration, prohibitions on actions, or substitution of officials—and in the so-called sanctioning phase in the strict sense (including defects in the Infraction Report and subsequent administrative resolutions, lack of reasoning, nonexistent or defective evidence, notification errors, deadlines, jurisdictional issues, etc.), providing a complete overview of the current state of this area of law.
The book brings together contributions from leading specialists in Labor Law and constitutes a rigorous and up-to-date reference in a field that has undergone significant regulatory and doctrinal developments in recent years.
