Spain's Constitutional Court has annulled 92,278 fines imposed during the COVID lockdown, ruling that significant parts of the restrictions were unconstitutional.

Spain's Constitutional Court has annulled 92,278 fines imposed during the COVID-19 lockdown, declaring significant parts of the restrictions unconstitutional. The decision comes five years after the pandemic began, marking one of the largest legal reviews in Spain's history.

Originally, strict limitations were enforced to curb the virus spread, resulting in over a million fines. The court stated these measures unlawfully restricted freedom of movement, which should only occur during declared states of emergency.

The retroactive ruling implies all actions based on the contested regulations are nullified. This poses challenges for authorities, particularly regarding refunding paid fines, as many citizens seek reimbursement. The process for addressing these claims varies significantly across regions.
