Opposition starts legal battle over Alhaurín no-confidence vote

The case refers to the failed attempt to take control of the town hall from current mayor Antonia Ledesma (Por Alhaurín). The motion, which in theory would have prospered, never went to vote due to a dispute as to whether Mari Francis Fernández's hand would count. Fernández was the only PP councillor but was suspended from her party after she announced her support for the no-confidence vote. The case could take five or six months to go through the courts.
