U.S. Italian prosecutors asked the trial directly accused of sex with underage girls occurred between paid and cover the issue of abuse of power Berlusconi.
Berlusconi appealed to judicial reform. If his appeal is not out of selfishness, is likely to cause people resonance. Bureaucratic nightmare, three appeals system and the incentive to delay litigation lawyer compensation structure, all this means, a case took 10 years to reach a final decision will be not uncommon.
Berlusconi's government has proposed a new judicial reform program, the proposal would be limited to trials must be completed within 2 years. But opposition lawmakers and analysts said the focus of this program is not to let the Italians get more justice, but to help the prime minister against the prosecution's allegations. Berlusconi said the prosecution of a political nature, bent on ruin him.
according to his own calculations, the first time as prime minister since 1994, has 17 years, the charismatic billionaire 28 times by the accused. Although he defeated them in court, many of the allegations, but there are some allegations that some laws passed in parliament before being dismissed --- critics say these laws is to allow Berlusconi to escape sanctions, especially developed .
even made the prosecution allegations, the Italian statute of limitations does not stop the computation time, and in the first instance and appeal to the computation time. This means that if the defendant as possible delay of proceedings, you can easily complete consumption of 2-year time limit for proceedings before a few times --- Berlusconi is so escaped jail for.
