Title: Lcdo. Jesús Antonio Rodríguez Urbano como Juez Superior del Tribunal de Primera Instancia, en ascenso
Bill type / classification: Appointment
Introduced: June 4, 2025
Current status: Notificado a la Gobernadora (Governor notified) — June 29, 2025

Purpose and intent

NM 190 is a nominee/appointment measure to place Lcdo. (Licenciado) Jesús Antonio Rodríguez Urbano in the office of Judge of the Tribunal de Primera Instancia (Superior Court), described as “en ascenso” (an elevation or promotion). The measure seeks legislative confirmation of the nominee to fill a Superior Court judicial position.

Key provisions / what the measure does

  • Confirms (or seeks confirmation of) Jesús Antonio Rodríguez Urbano as a Judge of the Tribunal de Primera Instancia (Superior Court).
  • The nomination is presented to the Senate for advice and consent and follows the standard legislative confirmation process (committee review, report, placement on calendar, floor confirmation).
  • There are no statutory changes to court structure, jurisdiction, salaries, or terms in the text provided — the measure is purely an individual appointment.

Who is affected

  • Directly: the nominee, Jesús Antonio Rodríguez Urbano — assuming confirmation, he will assume the duties of a Superior Court judge.
  • Indirectly: the Judiciary and litigants in the jurisdiction where the judge will serve — the appointment may affect case assignment, court workload distribution, and the composition of the bench.
  • Fiscal impact: none indicated in the bill text; routine costs (oath, chambers, staffing) are normally absorbed within existing judicial budgets unless otherwise specified.
