Coria del Río Lawyers: T5. Vive la vida. Toxics

  Coria del Río Lawyers: Tele 5. Vive la Vida. On December 17, 2017, we appeared on the program T5 Vive la Vida, hosted by Toñi Moreno, with Sergio González, and featuring Ángel José Del Pino Ibáñez from our team. The objective of IN DIEM Lawyers has been to report on the situation in Coria del Río resulting from the toxic gases circulating through the sewage network. These gases affect hundreds of families, yet the issue has not been resolved by the administration or the competent companies. According to reports available to IN DIEM, the following components have currently been identified: Toluene, Hexane, n-Heptane, n-Octane, j-Octane, Phenol, Dichloromethane, Trichloroethane, Trichloroethylene, Tetrachloroethylene, and Dimethylacetamide.

Bitcoin – Blockchains

What is Bitcoin…? Technically: Bitcoin is the term used to name a transferable digital asset that also has a finite number set at 21 million. Bitcoin is a virtual currency that can serve as a medium of exchange, payment, or investment; however, unlike other currencies, it is defined as a decentralized electronic currency, meaning no one controls it. How are they generated? Bitcoin does not have a central issuer like dollars or euros; the cryptocurrency is produced by individuals and companies worldwide dedicating significant resources to “mining.” To be generated, a computer code/algorithm is used. The system is programmed to generate a fixed number of bitcoins per unit of time through computers called miners. Currently, that number is set at 25 bitcoins every ten minutes, although it is programmed to halve every 4 years. Thus, from 2017 onwards, it is expected that 12.55 bitcoins will be issued every ten minutes....

Christmas Lottery and Misappropriation

Christmas Lottery: Finding a Winning Ticket and Cashing It… The story begins like this: she had purchased seven tickets for the Christmas Lottery draw that was to be held on December 22, 2014. She bought them at the Lottery Office in Plaza Santo Domingo in Lugo. On those tickets, she had written a name in pencil on the back. However, between December 18 and 21 of that year, she lost one of the tickets. Specifically, she lost the one that had won the first prize in the Christmas Lottery draw, worth €400,100. Someone else found the ticket. After confirming it had won, they tried to erase the inscription on the back. They then presented it for payment at the Abanca branch on C/ Fontiñas in Lugo. As a result, they received a net deposit—after the legally required taxes were deducted—of €320,580 into their account. Our profile at IN DIEM is...

International Flamenco Day 2017

International Flamenco Day was celebrated on November 16, and to mark the occasion, around that date, events and shows were organized throughout Andalusia for all who appreciate this dimension of art. We were with them, with our colleagues from Mairena del Alcor IN DIEM Lawyers, for the celebration on Saturday, November 18. Mairena del Alcor and Flamenco have always been intimately linked. In this instance, with an avant-garde show, we enjoyed a blend of cante jondo with the most contemporary band and symphonic instrumentation. The performance featured Andrés Barrios on piano; Eduardo Rebollar on guitar; Manuel Curao as narrator; and the impressive and unforgettable Mairena native José de la Mena on vocals. The composition was by David Hurtado. For us, it was filled with emotion, with that art that touches the heart and leaves no one indifferent… and with the profound wish that so many hours of work, such demanding...
