Court summons regarding the appeal by Puerto Marina against Ceuta

The Official Gazette of the Autonomous City of Ceuta publishes this Monday, October 12, 2026, the summons to all natural and legal persons with rights derived from Ordinary Procedure PO 0001014, filed by Promociones Inmobiliarias Puerto Marina de Ceuta SL against the Autonomous City of Ceuta. The Ministry of Urban Planning and Transport forwards the administrative file to the Court of First Instance-Contentious-Administrative Section No. 1 of Ceuta and sets a period of nine days for interested parties to appear. The announcement is disseminated in extraordinary issue 46 of the gazette, within the section of Other Provisions and Agreements.

The legal framework of the summons

The resolution is adopted pursuant to the provisions of Article 49 of Law 29/1998, of July 13, regulating the Contentious-Administrative Jurisdiction, and in compliance with the request made by the judicial body. The text is digitally signed in Ceuta on October 8, 2026, by the Minister of Urban Planning and Transport, Rafael Martínez Peñalver Mateos, and is published four days later in the official gazette.

The procedure is identified by number PO 0001014 and N.I.G. 51001 45 3 2026 0001982, data that allow any affected party to locate the matter before the Contentious-Administrative Section number 1 of Ceuta.

Remittance of the administrative file

Following instructions from the Minister of Urban Planning and Transport, the City agrees to the remittance of the administrative file or files corresponding to the ordinary procedure. This is the standard procedure by which the defendant Administration makes the documentation of the contested file available to the court, a preliminary step to the formalization of the lawsuit by the appellant party.

• Issuing body: Ministry of Urban Planning and Transport of the Autonomous City of Ceuta.
• Recipient judicial body: Court of First Instance-Contentious-Administrative Section No. 1 of Ceuta.
• Procedure: PO 0001014, with N.I.G. 51001 45 3 2026 0001982.
• Appellant party: Promociones Inmobiliarias Puerto Marina de Ceuta SL.
• Defendant party: Autonomous City of Ceuta.

Nine days to appear

The announcement summons those who have a direct interest in the procedure and all those persons, natural or legal, in whose favor rights may have derived or could derive from the urban planning file. They must appear and present themselves before the Court of First Instance-Contentious-Administrative Section No. 1 of Ceuta within nine days following the notification or, where applicable, the publication of the announcement.

The appearance allows affected parties to intervene in the litigation as a party and defend their positions, without the publication of the summons prejudging the outcome of the procedure.

Impact for affected parties

The summons affects third parties with rights derived from the urban planning file linked to the Puerto Marina project; therefore, any holder of licenses, concessions, or urban planning expectations related thereto must evaluate their appearance within the deadline. Publication in the Official Gazette of the Autonomous City of Ceuta constitutes the formal channel of notification to interested parties not directly identified by the Administration, such that the calculation of the nine-day period begins from its official dissemination.
