The SEXPE summons those affected by the appeal regarding the experts' scale

The Extremaduran Public Employment Service (SEXPE) has summoned potential interested parties to appear in the contentious-administrative appeal being processed under abbreviated procedure no. 151/2026 before the Court of First Instance, Contentious-Administrative Section, Plaza n.º 2 of Mérida. The decision is contained in the Resolution of November 3, 2026, of the General Secretariat for Employment, published in the Official Gazette of Extremadura (DOE) no. 216, today Tuesday, November 10, 2026, with official reference 2026062813. The deadline to appear is nine days starting from the day following the publication.

The summons is provided for in Article 49 of Law 29/1998, of July 13, regulating the Contentious-Administrative Jurisdiction, and obliges the defendant administrative body to publicize the proceedings to those who may be affected by the judicial resolution without having been a party in the previous administrative stage. The document was signed in Mérida on November 3, 2026, by the General Secretary for Employment, María José Nevado del Campo.

A dispute over the scoring of a specialty

The appeal was filed by Mr. Raúl Antúnez Horcajo against the dismissal of the administrative appeal for reversal that he presented before the SEXPE itself. The origin of the conflict is the Resolution of July 16, 2026, of the General Directorate of Employment Training, which made public the definitive lists of scored experts in the teaching expert files for employment of the SEXPE.

The object of the litigation is limited to the score assigned in the specialty of Technical Support Monitor for Basic Competencies, and the published resolution does not extend the debate to the entirety of the lists nor to other specialties of the teaching expert file.

Nine days to appear before Plaza n.º 2

The resolution details the conditions of the summons:

• Deadline: nine business days from the day following the publication in the DOE, that is, starting from November 11, 2026.
• Body before which to appear: Court of First Instance, Contentious-Administrative Section, Plaza n.º 2 of Mérida.
• Procedure: abbreviated no. 151/2026.
• Object: scoring of the specialty of Technical Support Monitor for Basic Competencies.
• Who may appear: potential interested parties, that is, those who prove a legitimate interest in the scoring of that specialty.

Effects of arriving after the deadline

The text warns that if the appearance occurs outside the indicated period, the interested parties will be considered parties only for the proceedings that have not yet expired; thus, the procedure will continue along its course without the need for notifications to be served in court or in any other form. In other words, anyone who joins late will lose the actions already completed and will not receive subsequent notices from the court.

The publication of this summons affects a specific group: the applicants included in the SEXPE file of teaching experts in the specialty of Technical Monitor for Support in Basic Competencies, whose scores determine their call to provide employment training in Extremadura. The result of abbreviated procedure no. 151/2026 may, therefore, alter the scoring order of that specialty and, consequently, the access to future contracts as a teaching expert. Those who wish to defend their position in the litigation have a very tight window: nine days from the publication of this resolution in the DOE.
