The Difference Between Xanax Bars
If the high court denies the norm, will be buried a third consecutive term in the head of state.
Whatever the decision, shall be by simple majority of nine judges and the decision is final.
The discussion of the day is the seventh of nine Constitutional Court judges have done in recent weeks about the referendum law, passed by Congress in late 2009.
The debate begins at 09.00 local time (14:00 GMT) and is expected in the afternoon, the presiding judge, Mauricio Gonzalez, announce whether it is constitutional or not the law that calls for the consultation.
The decision of the court will decide whether or not Uribe can claim a second consecutive reelection.
Asked in the day by the radio network ABC stations on its position concerning the decision of the Court, Uribe responded that "in any case, I have not lost the desire (desire) to work in Colombia, from any position, any circumstances until the last day of life. "
"I wanted to make prudent for institutions democratic, in this case the Constitutional Court can devise quietly, "added the president, who for months has declined to say publicly whether or not a third term. "So under any circumstances tell the Colombians in heart, do not abandon the path ... the path of 'democratic security,'" Uribe said, referring to its security policy or battle against illegal armed groups, especially the guerrillas.
Uribe, 57, with margins of popularity above 60%, has all along.
Many experts, and most of the media take for granted that the Court Constitution, the highest body for resolving matters of the Constitution, shall act against the law because apparently the process or approval process in Congress had several flaws.
the day's discussion focused on a draft decision prepared by one of the judges, and the content although it has not been officially disclosed, would indicate that the law violated several rules query, as that was adopted at a meeting whose special call was issued subsequent to the meeting and not before, as indicated by internal rules of the House.
Already in 2005 the same Court had given the green light to an amendment to the Constitution and introduced the re-election immediately for a further term of four years.
With this modification, in 2006 Uribe won a second term of four years.
This time if the referendum goes ahead law in court, Uribe will be against two obstacles.
The first is that if the referendum is approved, the National Registry, the first Colombian-election authority will need at least two months to organize the consultation and now the National Registrar, Carlos Ariel Sánchez, said that Uribe is legally until March 12, the deadline to register as a candidate.
But also, if the query is performed, the agent need some 7.5 million votes, or 25% of the electoral roll, according to the rules covered here, for the choice of constitutional reform itself so that it is approved.
