Summary — NM 310: Appointment of Lcda. Anamar Menéndez González as Fiscal Auxiliar II (Department of Justice)

Overview / Purpose

NM 310 is an appointment measure nominating Lcda. Anamar Menéndez González to serve as Fiscal Auxiliar II (Assistant Prosecutor II) in the Department of Justice. The measure seeks legislative confirmation of this executive nomination to fill an established prosecutorial position within the Justice Department.

Key provisions

  • Confirms the nomination of Lcda. Anamar Menéndez González for the position of Fiscal Auxiliar II.
  • Does not propose changes to statutes, budgets, or duties; it is an appointment/confirmation action rather than substantive policy or appropriation legislation.
  • By confirming the nominee, the Legislature enables the Justice Department to fill the position so the nominee may assume the responsibilities associated with the office.

Timeline / Legislative actions

  • 2025-10-08 — Nomination submitted and referred to committee(s).
  • 2025-10-27 — Committee issued a first report recommending confirmation.
  • 2025-10-27 — Referred to the Senate Rules and Calendar Committee.
  • 2025-10-27 — Placed on the Senate Special Orders Calendar.
  • 2025-10-27 — Confirmed by the Senate.
  • 2025-10-27 — Notification sent to the Governor (Notificado a la Gobernadora).

Who is affected / Impact

  • Primary effect: Department of Justice operations — fills a prosecutorial post, which can affect caseload distribution, staffing capacity, and continuity of legal representation for the government.
  • Indirect effect: members of the public and parties in criminal or civil matters prosecuted or defended by the Department, who may see changes in staffing or case management.
  • Fiscal impact: None specified in the measure. Any salary or administrative costs would be covered through existing Department of Justice appropriations unless otherwise provided by separate budget action.

Procedural / Next steps

  • The Senate has confirmed the nomination and the appointment was formally notified to the Governor on October 27, 2025.
  • Final administrative onboarding (issuance of commission, start date, clearance or background procedures) depends on applicable executive-branch processes and any statutory requirements for appointments in the jurisdiction.

This measure is an appointment-confirmation action rather than a substantive change to law or policy; its primary consequence is to allow the nominee to occupy the named prosecutorial position.
