The Consorci de la Mina, comprising the Generalitat, the Diputació de Barcelona, and the city councils of Barcelona and Sant Adrià, has requested the suspension of judicial evictions ordered for the building on Ernest Lluch street. Initially, five evictions were scheduled for June 29, July 8, and Monday, July 13, on which date officers also did not appear.
With this suspension, no further evictions are scheduled until September, when the courts resume their activity after the holiday period. In this first phase, a total of 11 evictions have been carried out: 10 between June 18 and 25, marked by a strong police presence and episodes of neighborhood tension, and a final one on July 2. From September onwards, evictions are planned every Thursday, at least until December, with up to three or four simultaneous evictions scheduled on some days.
However, four families have reoccupied the apartments where they lived after removing the anti-squatting doors installed by the Mossos d’Esquadra. The Consorci has reported these reoccupations and requested immediate eviction from the judge, but the justice system has dismissed all demands filed so far. A recent ruling acknowledges that eviction is the "ideal measure to recover possession," but considers that "its urgent necessity is not sufficiently proven, nor is its adoption proportionate."
In previous rulings, the justice system had argued that the plaintiff is a "multi-property legal entity" and that the defendant proves to be in a "housing vulnerability situation." The order also noted that the Sant Adrià de Besòs City Council, for the moment, "does not offer a housing alternative."
