A day later, they were illegally fired, and in their place, five lawyers with ties to the ruling party were stopped for disobeying the law.

In addition, there was Attorney General Raul Melara, who was appointed by the Legislature in 2018 following the April 30 lawsuit. There were questions in his election, but the proper procedure for removing him was not followed.
