Criticism and supportThe creation of this court, founded and strongly supported by Women's institutions, has generated quite a range of criticism within Spanish society. A non-binding legal report by the General Council of the Judiciary (CGPJ), considered that the law on which the court is based violated the principle of equality as established in the Constitution .[1] Many associations, like the Conservative the Professional Association of Magistrates (APM) or divorced fathers groups [2][3] are opposed to the courts. As to March 2008, over 200 Spanish Judges have challenged the constitutionality of the law at the Constitutional Court via the constitutionality question procedure.[4][5] The law was founded and has extensive support of feminist organizations and specialised jurists, that believe it to be a necessary step in their goal of "eradicating" gender violence against women in Spain, however official figures from the National Institute of Statistics show that deaths have steadily increased since the start of the campaign.[6][7] In May 2008 the Constitutional Court ruled the constitutionality of the Organic Law for the Prevention of Violence Against Women, discarding any legal criticism of the law.[8] See alsoViolence against womenDomestic violence Spanish Judiciary References1. ^Report of the CGPJ 2. ^{{es}}El Anunciado Fracaso de la Ley de Genero at Galcian Association of Divorced Parents. 3. ^{{es}}Statement against the law by Association "Projusticia" 4. ^(List at end of page) 5. ^{{es}}El Constitucional acepta la cuestión contra la ley de violencia machista, at El País 10/Feb/2006 6. ^Report by Red Feminista 7. ^Communication of the Palencia Platform for Women's Rights 8. ^{{es}}Las claves de la decisión del TC sobre la Ley contra la Violencia de Género in terra.es External links
