Purpose and intent

  • Nominee: Lcdo. Orlandy Cabrera Valentín.
  • Position: Fiscal I, Departamento de Justicia (a prosecutorial/attorney-level position within the Justice Department).

Who is affected

  • Departamento de Justicia: the appointment fills an operational post in the department and may affect case assignments, staffing, and workload distribution among prosecutors.
  • Courts and litigants: assignment of a new Fiscal I can affect case management and prosecutorial representation for matters handled by that office.
  • The nominee: confirmation advances the nominee’s appointment process pending final administrative steps.

Procedural status and next steps

  • Status: Confirmed by the Senate and notified to the Governor (as of June 2, 2025).
  • Next procedural step: final administrative or executive action according to applicable local rules (for example, formal commissioning or administrative onboarding) will complete the appointment. Any additional requirements (oath-taking, paperwork, effective date of appointment) are handled by the Departamento de Justicia and the executive branch.
