Asturias executes the final judgment confirming the reimbursement of 18,508.94 euros

The Department of Science, Industry, and Employment of the Principality of Asturias has ordered the execution of the final judgment confirming the revocation of a granted aid and the reimbursement of 18,508.94 euros. The decision is formalized in the Resolution of September 10, 2026, signed by the counselor Borja Sánchez García, and is published in the Official Gazette of the Principality of Asturias (BOPA) no. 181, of September 18, 2026, under reference 2026-07548.

The TSJA ruling and its execution

The origin of the case lies in Ordinary Procedure 627/2025, processed before the Contentious-Administrative Chamber of the High Court of Justice of Asturias (TSJA). The appeal was directed against the Resolution of the Department of Science, Industry, and Employment of June 25, 2025, which in turn dismissed the previous contentious-administrative appeal against the resolution that totally revoked the granted aid and agreed upon the reimbursement of 18,508.94 euros.

The ruling, reproduced literally in the published resolution, dismisses the appeal and declares the administrative action to be in accordance with the law. The Department now executes the judgment “in its own terms,” once it has become final, which closes the ordinary judicial route for this file.

Legal costs and execution procedure

• Legal costs are imposed on the plaintiff, with the limitation set in the final legal ground of the judgment.
• The execution is processed in accordance with Article 26 of Decree 20/1997, of March 20, which regulates the organization and functioning of the Legal Service of the Principality of Asturias.
• The resolution orders its publication in the BOPA, a procedure fulfilled by its insertion in issue number 181.

The official text does not identify the beneficiary nor detail the sector of activity of the revoked aid; it limits itself to fixing the amount to be reimbursed and ratifying the legality of the revocation agreed upon by the regional Administration.

Another judgment on the same day regarding COVID aid

On the same day, the Department published a second execution resolution, that of September 9, 2026 (2026-07535), relating to Ordinary Procedure 684/2025. In that case, the appeal was directed against the Resolution of June 11, 2025, which dismissed an appeal for reconsideration against the resolution that granted and denied direct aid to support the business solvency of freelancers and companies from various sectors in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The TSJA likewise dismissed the appeal, imposing costs on the party whose claims were all rejected and with the maximum limit set in the judgment itself. Both resolutions share the same scheme: execution of the ruling, publication in the gazette, and closure of the administrative file.

Impact for grant beneficiaries

The two rulings reinforce the position of the regional Administration in the control of granted subsidies and in the demand for reimbursement when grounds for revocation occur. For recipients of public aid, the message is clear: the administrative review of a grant can be upheld in court and result in the full refund of the amount received, in addition to the legal costs of the process.
