Overview
- Manuel Adorni has not filed his Declaración Jurada despite saying he would meet the original May 30 timetable and his team now says the filing will be postponed.
- The government issued Resolution 3/2026 extending the deadline for all officials to July 31, a routine move that Adorni’s lawyer, Matías Ledesma, used to justify delaying the filing.
- Adorni is formally imputado in two separate investigations handled in Judge Ariel Lijo’s court and instructed by prosecutor Gerardo Pollicita, one for alleged illicit enrichment and one for possible dádivas tied to travel and undeclared assets.
- Judicial sources told reporters they expect an indagatoria, or formal questioning, before the judicial recess and that the judge would have 10 days after that to decide on a procesamiento.
- Political pressure is intensifying: opposition figures including Cristian Ritondo and Patricia Bullrich have urged immediate disclosure while allies such as Karina Milei have publicly signaled support; media revelations and disputed evidence could still derail the government’s legislative plans.
