More about the Dominican Republic legislative proposal

Further to Prof. Christina Cerna's excellent post the other day, here is an op-ed by attorney Francisco Alvarez Valdez on whether the Dominican Republic's Congress should overturn the military courts decision of the country's Constitutional Court. (Google Translate does a good job on this.) Excerpt:

There are no shortcuts and, therefore, any attempt by the deputies to insert into the criminal code, even indirectly, the existence of military criminal courts, as it is intended to do, would be in direct contempt of the current precedent of the TC, which would open the doors to other public powers and citizens in general, to act contrary to the precedents set by the TC, which is institutionally very dangerous.

I hope that the deputies do not act like the military, standing up and responding "sir, yes sir", to the clear attempts to revive the military criminal courts, which, furthermore, are not necessary in our country.
