The proposal, which also includes reinforcements in Baix Llobregat, Vallès, and Maresme, will distribute the new positions among municipalities such as Barcelona, El Prat de Llobregat, Esplugues de Llobregat, Martorell, Santa Coloma de Gramenet, Badalona, Granollers, Sabadell, Terrassa, L'Hospitalet de Llobregat, and Mataró.
In Barcelona city, the reinforcement includes positions in areas such as civil, commercial, investigation, criminal, penal execution, violence against women, against children and adolescents, social, and administrative litigation. New positions are also planned for the Provincial Court of Barcelona and the High Court of Justice of Catalonia.
These 95 judicial units (94 new ones plus the one in Sant Feliu de Guíxols) are added to the 91 created during 2026, bringing the total number of judicial positions in Catalonia to 1,057 by 2027, an increase of 21.35% compared to the current situation.
Minister Espadaler highlighted that this growth "will benefit all territories of Catalonia, without exception," enabling more efficient justice and reducing response times for citizens.
