The expectation is for the publication of the Italian Constitutional Court's ruling on the recognition of Italian citizenship increased this Monday (27). The movement occurs after the body began to publish decisions from hearings held in the same week as the case involving the infamous Tajani Decree.

The Court published yesterday rulings relating to cases reviewed on March 10 and 12. The hearing on the Turin case took place on March 11, 2026.The following day, the agency released only a preliminary statement to the press regarding the legitimacy of Decree-Law No. 36 of 2025, which amended the Italian citizenship law.

The previous statement declared the issues raised by the Turin Court as partially unfounded and partially inadmissibleHowever, the full rationale for the decision has not yet been made available. The document is essential to guide the strategy of lawyers in similar cases.

Impact on legal defenses

The absence of the full text makes preparation for upcoming hearings difficult. Lawyers interviewed by Italianismo state that the lack of reasons for the decision undermines the right to a defense. Without the Court's justification, the written arguments for future trials lose technical consistency.

The legal calendar includes important events for the coming months. A hearing at the Court of Cassation took place on April 14th, and the sentence is awaited. On June 9th, the Constitutional Court is scheduled to review new cases, including proceedings originating from the Mantua Court.

Cases of Mantua and Campobasso

In addition to Mantua, the legal landscape awaits decisions regarding the Campobasso cases. A recent publication in the Italian Official Gazette reported that these cases will be analyzed on June 9th. The Campobasso Court is questioning the constitutionality of rules that altered the recognition of citizenship by descent.

The Constitutional Court has up to 60 days to publish the final ruling. The announcement could occur at any time within this period. Until then, the legal strategy against the decree remains stalled due to a lack of access to the grounds for Turin's decision.
