Resumen de «Reati-presupposto» e applicabilità della «legge Severino». Considerazioni a margine della sentenza della Corte costituzionale n. 35 del 2021

Carla Di Martino

• The article examines the recent decision of the Italian Constitutional Court (n. 35/2021), concerning the so-called «Legge Severino» (that provides for the ineligibility of those sentenced to certain crimes). It tackles the still-resisting doubts on the constitutional legitimacy of the above-mentioned statute law. It considers the asserted lack of proportionality caused within its application after certain non-final rulings, because of the unlikelihood of their becoming final convictions.
