King Don Juan Carlos and Doña Sofía will preside today over the commemoration of the XXV anniversary of the Constitutional Court. The act will take place in that institution and will count on the presence of the Princes of Asturias and the president of the Government, Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero.

This celebration occurs after the president of the Constitutional Court, Maria Emilia Casas, demanded a reform of the Statutory Law of the Constitutional Court (LOTC), with the purpose of delimiting the requirements to access the protection of this institution, and thus to shorten the time of response.

The King, in his speech, emphasized the 'incalculable value of the Constitution’, guaranteeing that Spain may continue ‘united, peacefully progressing in democracy and liberty'. Don Juan Carlos also stand out the respect that the Constitutional Court imposes for 'its independence’ and ‘its high responsibility on the defence of the Constitution'.

The King remembered the work of the magistrates and all its presidents, since Manuel Garcia-Pelayo (who already passed away) to Maria Emilia Casas, with a special note to Francisco Tomás y Valiente (who was assassinated by ETA).

"Justice, Freedom, Concord " is the motto of the Constitutional Court; three concepts that the King wishes that will always serve as currency and inspiration to whichever “citizens, public institutions, independent communities or municipal corporations approach this high Court, in demand of constitutional justice".

I am quite a fan of Letizia's and her professional attitude toward her job. But I think the outfit today is a little low cut for a daytime engagement.

does anyone know what the King has done to his eye? It looks cut or bruised underneath....
