Abstract

The administration in the Ancient Regime is mainly justice administration. The laws pretend to assure impartiality but the judges are related to a particular social reality from which they can't or don't want to escape. That is the case of Juan Manuel de Villena. The president of the Chancellery receives a good number of letters in 1958. These letters show how much the judge is socially involved and that justice is not always right. The result is that partial judges, recognised by the institution, are part of the so called impartial justice.
