John Giuliani is petitioning the Central Electoral Board (JCE) to penalize fellow judge Eddy Olivares for his public opposition to a decision by the JCE judges. The spat between Olivares and Giuliani began when the JCE judges voted in favor of ceasing all political ad campaigns and forcing the political parties to remove all ads from TV as well as billboards and posters. Olivares responded to Giuliani's petition by saying it was a way of diverting attention from a resolution that he describes as illegal. Giuliani defended his bid by saying that Olivares's attitude creates a sense of anarchy within the JCE that shouldn't be tolerated. Asked if penalizing Olivares would be legal, Giuliani said that the JCE is a sovereign institution and that the situation could be examined to see if he is violating any rules. Giuliani continued by saying that as well as a public or private penalty the JCE could decide to take whatever decision it sees fit against one of its judges who goes against a Board resolution.
