NM 203 — Summary

Overview and purpose

  • Bill number: NM 203
  • Title: Lcdo. Gabriel Jaime Sicardó Ocasio como Fiscal Auxiliar II del Departamento de Justicia de Puerto Rico
  • Purpose (as introduced): The measure appears to nominate and appoint Lcdo. Gabriel Jaime Sicardó Ocasio to the position of Fiscal Auxiliar II (Assistant Attorney II) within the Department of Justice of Puerto Rico. The action is an appointment/confirmation-type measure typical of "Nombramientos" (NM) in Puerto Rico.
  • Nature of bill: Appointment-related (nombramiento). No additional substantive policy changes are described in the available material.

Key provisions (as introduced)

  • The available information indicates the bill would confer or confirm the appointment of a specific individual to a DOJ legal role (Fiscal Auxiliar II). The text detailing duties, term length, salary, or specific responsibilities is not provided in the material available.
  • No other policy changes, funding provisions, or procedural modifications are stated in the provided summary.

Who would be affected

  • Primary beneficiary: Lcdo. Gabriel Jaime Sicardó Ocasio, who would hold the position of Fiscal Auxiliar II in the Puerto Rico Department of Justice.
  • Affected institution: Department of Justice of Puerto Rico (DOJ PR), which would fill the vacancy with the named individual upon enactment and confirmation.
  • Broad impacts: Depending on the duties of Fiscal Auxiliar II, potential effects could include changes in case handling, supervision, or support within DOJ offices. However, since the nomination was withdrawn, no substantive personnel change occurred.

Procedural history and timeline

  • Introduced: June 17, 2025
  • Referenced to committees: June 17, 2025
  • Legislative action: June 17, 2025 — Nomination; June 17, 2025 — Refer to Committee(s)
  • Status as of latest action: Nombramiento retirado por la Gobernadora (appointment withdrawn by the Governor) on June 20, 2025
  • Current implication: With the governor withdrawing the nomination, the anticipated appointment would not proceed under this measure, and the bill would not effect a change in DOJ personnel at this time.

Next steps (if pursued)

  • If reintroduced, the bill would once again go through committee consideration, hearings, and potential floor votes.
  • Any future nomination would depend on new process and approval by the Governor or relevant constitutional/legislative steps.

Notes: The available materials do not include the bill text, so specific duties, term, or compensatory details are not enumerated here. The key recent development is the governor’s withdrawal of the nomination.
