NM 273 — Lcdo. José David Díaz Cabán como Fiscal Auxiliar I del Departamento de Justicia

Overview

NM 273 is a bill intended to appoint Lcdo. José David Díaz Cabán to the position of Fiscal Auxiliar I in the Department of Justice. The measure is classified as an appointment. As of the latest actions, the Governor has withdrawn the nomination.

Purpose and Intent

  • Primary purpose: to authorize and confirm the appointment of Lcdo. José David Díaz Cabán to the role of Fiscal Auxiliar I within the Department of Justice.
  • The proposal reflects an executive nomination undergoing legislative confirmation, consistent with typical appointment processes for DOJ positions.

Key Provisions (as described by the bill’s designation)

  • Appointment of Lcdo. José David Díaz Cabán to the position of Fiscal Auxiliar I in the Department of Justice.
  • Specific duties, term length, salary, and related personnel provisions are not detailed in the provided materials. The substantive effect rests on confirmation of the named individual to the cited post.

Affected Parties and Impacts

  • Department of Justice: Would gain a new Fiscal Auxiliar I if the nomination were confirmed.
  • Lcdo. José David Díaz Cabán: Would assume the duties of Fiscal Auxiliar I, subject to the confirmation process.
  • The broader DOJ workforce and operations could be affected to the extent the position changes staffing or case-management capacity.

Procedural History and Timeline

  • 2025-08-18: Nominated. The bill was introduced and the nomination was referred to committees on the same date.
  • 2025-11-14: Nombramiento retirado por la Gobernadora (Appointment withdrawn by the Governor). This indicates the Governor withdrew the nomination, leaving the bill without an active appointment to confirm.

Current Status and Implications

  • Status: Nombramiento retirado por la Gobernadora. The appointment is effectively withdrawn, and the bill does not currently result in a confirmed appointment.
  • Implications: If the nomination is re-submitted or reintroduced, the usual confirmation process would begin again. Until then, the position remains vacant unless alternative arrangements are made.

Next Steps (if reintroduced or revived)

  • A new or refiled bill would need to be introduced, referred to committees, and undergo the confirmation process for the nominated individual.
  • Public notice and committee hearings would provide opportunities for testimony and additional information about the nominee and the role.

Notes: The provided materials do not include salary, term, or detailed duties for Fiscal Auxiliar I, so those specifics are not available in this summary.
