If you passed the selective process for the Procedural and Administrative Processing Body of the Administration of Justice, your position on the final list may have changed. The Order PJC/638/2026, published on June 25, 2026, corrects material errors detected in Order PJC/488/2026 of May 12, which published the list of approved persons. The corrections are not minor: in one of the affected areas, a candidate who did not appear is reincorporated, pushing down all those who follow her on the list.
These modifications have direct and practical consequences: the classification order in this type of process determines preference in choosing position and destination. Moving up or down one position can mean accessing or not accessing the desired position.
What does this regulation establish?
Order PJC/638/2026 rectifies three types of material errors detected in the approved list published on May 20, 2026. Below are all the changes by area:
| Area | Type of correction | Detail |
|---|---|---|
| Canary Islands — General System | Correction of competitive score | The competitive score of a candidate is corrected. The error affected her score published in the list of May 20, 2026. |
| Canary Islands — Disability Reserve | Reversal of order of two candidates | Upon recalculating the total scores of two candidates, their order is reversed compared to the previous list. |
| Ministry of Justice — General System | Reincorporation of omitted candidate and renumbering | An order number is added and García González, María Manuela is reincorporated, who did not appear correctly on the list. Her inclusion alters the classification of all candidates following her in that area. |
The corrected regulation, Order PJC/488/2026, published the list of approved persons in the selective process called by Order PJC/150/2024, of February 19, for access by internal promotion and competitive examination system to the Procedural and Administrative Processing Body of the Administration of Justice.
Economic and operational impact
This type of correction in approved lists has a direct impact on the allocation of positions and destinations. In selective processes of the Administration of Justice, the classification order is the main criterion for choosing destination: whoever occupies a higher position on the list has preference in choosing among available positions.
The specific operational consequences are as follows:
- Canary Islands General System: The affected candidate may see her relative position on the list modified, which may improve or worsen her access to certain destinations in that territorial area.
- Canary Islands Disability Reserve: The two candidates whose order is reversed exchange their preference for choosing position. The one who now occupies the higher position has priority over the other.
- Ministry of Justice General System: This is the change with the broadest scope. The reincorporation of García González, María Manuela pushes down all candidates following her in that area. Depending on the number of available positions, this displacement may mean being excluded from the most sought-after positions or even from allocation if the number of positions is limited.
Who does it affect?
- Candidates approved in the area of Canary Islands General System whose relative position may be altered by the correction of the competitive score of the affected candidate.
- The two candidates from Canary Islands Disability Reserve whose order is reversed after recalculation of total scores.
- García González, María Manuela and all candidates in the area Ministry of Justice General System who appeared below her correct position, as all of them are displaced one position down in the final classification.
- Any candidate approved in these three areas who is pending knowledge of their final destination or who has planned their position choice based on the list published on May 20, 2026.
Practical example
Imagine you are an approved candidate in the area of Ministry of Justice General System and in the list published on May 20, 2026 you appeared in position 45. With the correction introduced by Order PJC/638/2026, the reincorporation of García González, María Manuela in a position prior to yours displaces you to position 46.
If the available positions in that area are, for example, 45, this displacement of just one position would leave you out of the allocation. Although the example is illustrative, it reflects exactly the type of consequence that can result from this change: in approved lists with limited positions, one position can be decisive.
Similarly, in Canary Islands Disability Reserve, the candidate who after recalculation now occupies the first position of the two affected will have preference in choosing the available position in that round, while the second must wait for the first to choose.
What should those affected do now?
- Consult the corrected list published on June 25, 2026. Access the full text of Order PJC/638/2026 in the BOE and locate your order number in the area that corresponds to you (Canary Islands General System, Canary Islands Disability Reserve or Ministry of Justice General System).
- Compare your previous position with the new one. If you appeared in any of the three affected areas, verify whether your order number has changed compared to the list of May 20, 2026.
- Recalculate your destination choice strategy. If your position has changed, review which positions remain accessible to you based on your new classification.
- If you detect an error in your own position, contact the managing unit of the selective process at the Ministry of the Presidency, Justice and Relations with the Courts to request clarification or correction before the destination choice process begins.
- Stay alert to possible official communications about the position choice schedule, as the list correction may have modified the planned deadlines or procedures.
Frequently asked questions
What errors does Order PJC/638/2026 exactly correct?
It corrects three types of material errors in the approved list published on May 20, 2026: (1) the competitive score of a candidate in Canary Islands General System; (2) the order of two candidates in Canary Islands Disability Reserve, which is reversed after recalculating their total scores; and (3) in the Ministry of Justice General System, an order number is added and García González, María Manuela is reincorporated, who did not appear correctly, altering the classification of all candidates following her.
How do I know if my position on the list has changed?
You must consult directly the text of Order PJC/638/2026, published in the BOE on June 25, 2026, and locate your order number in the area that corresponds to you. If you belong to Canary Islands General System, Canary Islands Disability Reserve or Ministry of Justice General System, compare your position in the corrected list with the one that appeared in Order PJC/488/2026 of May 12.
What are the consequences if my position on the list changes?
The classification order determines preference in choosing position and destination. If your position drops (for example, due to the reincorporation of García González, María Manuela in the Ministry of Justice General System), you will have fewer choice options. In borderline cases, a displacement of just one position can mean being excluded from available positions if the number of approved candidates exceeds the number of positions offered.
When does the corrected list become effective?
Order PJC/638/2026 entered into force on the same day of its publication in the BOE: June 25, 2026. The corrected list replaces the one published on May 20, 2026 in the affected areas.
What do I do if I think there is an error in my position after the correction?
You must contact the managing unit of the selective process at the Ministry of the Presidency, Justice and Relations with the Courts to request clarification or correction. It is advisable to do so before the destination choice process begins, as once positions are allocated the margin for action is considerably reduced.
