The Electoral Census Office of Ávila has called for the draw to form the lists of jury candidates for the 2027-2028 biennium. The act will be held in a public session on September 22, 2026, at 10:00 AM, at the Provincial Delegation of the National Statistics Institute in Ávila, located at Calle Intendente Aizpuru, number 4.

The announcement, signed on September 2, 2026, by the Provincial Delegate of the Electoral Census Office, Ernesto de Antonio Hernández, is published in the Official Gazette of the Province of Ávila on September 10, 2026, number 1785/26.

This procedure is repeated every two years and affects all citizens of the province of Ávila who meet the legal requirements to be called to serve as jurors in the courts.

• The act is public, so any citizen may attend.
• It will be held at the headquarters of the Provincial Delegation of the National Statistics Institute in Ávila.
• The resulting list will be valid for the 2027-2028 biennium.

Relevance for citizens

The draw is a matter of general interest, as any person registered in the province may be designated as a jury candidate and, if applicable, be summoned to be part of a jury court during the following two years. The publicity of the act guarantees the transparency of the procedure and equal opportunity in the selection.
