A group of students and professors of the Degree in Law from the Universitat Jaume I have supported the protest held at a national level against the reform of the Penal Code, which is processing the Government.  ‪The protest was organized by the Group of Studies on Criminal Policy, association composed of progressive professors, judges, magistrates and public prosecutors, to which different professors of the UJI belong and consisted in reading a statement of rejection of this reform.

‪The professor of Criminal Law at the Jaume I, Marisa Cuerda, was responsible for presenting this event in which she explained "we are facing the most authoritative reform of the Penal Code carried out in our country in democracy." ‪Cuerda stated that the amendment is not justified, since convict and prison population rates in Spain are extremely high when crime rates are lower than the European average, and has denounced that this is a reform without democratic legitimacy as it has been negatively reported by the highest state institutions (the General Council Judiciary, the State Council and the Audit Committee), it has been developed against the opinion of experts and does not have the support of groups from other parliamentary groups.
