Il Fatto Quotidiano: Il presidente dell’Antitrust Rustichelli si dimette dalla magistratura: senza la toga potrà avere nuovi incarichi pubblici

Roberto Rustichelli, presidente dell’Autorità garante della concorrenza e del mercato, si è dimesso dalla magistratura. Già giudice al Tribunale delle imprese di Napoli, Rustichelli ha assunto l’incarico a maggio 2019, nominato dagli allora presidenti delle Camere Roberto Fico ed Elisabetta Casellati: il suo mandato di sette anni quindi scadrà il mese prossimo, precisamente il 6 maggio, stessa data a partire dalla quale ha comunicato di voler lasciare la toga. Il Consiglio superiore della magistratura voterà l’accettazione delle dimissioni nella seduta di mercoledì 8 aprile.
Per Rustichelli uscire dall’ordine giudiziario è una strada obbligata per ottenere nuovi incarichi pubblici di rilievo. Prima di guidare l’Antitrust, infatti, il magistrato aveva già lavorato per l’esecutivo per quasi 12 anni (dal 2001 al 2013) come consigliere giuridico della Presidenza del Consiglio e come vice capo di gabinetto del ministro delle Attività produttive Claudio Scajola nel governo Berlusconi III. Al momento della nomina a presidente dell’Autorità, quindi, aveva già superato il limite massimo di dieci anni fuori ruolo previsto dalla legge Severino. Ma il Csm, spaccandosi quasi a metà, aveva comunque autorizzato l’incarico, sostenendo che quel limite non valesse per i membri delle autorità indipendenti. Ora che il mandato è scaduto, però, il tetto si applicherebbe a qualsiasi altra poltrona, obbligando Rustichelli a tornare in magistratura: da qui, probabilmente, la scelta di dimettersi.

Antitrust president Rustichelli resigns from the judiciary: without the robe he can have new public roles.

Roberto Rustichelli, president of the Competition and Markets Authority, has resigned from the judiciary. Previously a judge at the Naples Business Court, Rustichelli took office in May 2019, appointed by then-Chamber presidents Roberto Fico and Elisabetta Casellati: his seven-year term expires next month, specifically on May 6th, the same date on which he announced his intention to leave the legal profession. The Superior Council of the Judiciary will vote on the acceptance of the resignation on Wednesday, April 8th.

For Rustichelli, leaving the judicial system is a necessary step to obtain new significant public positions. Before leading the Antitrust, the magistrate had already worked for the executive for almost 12 years (from 2001 to 2013) as legal advisor to the Presidency of the Council and as deputy chief of staff for Minister of Economic Development Claudio Scajola in the Berlusconi III government. At the time of his appointment as president of the Authority, he had already exceeded the maximum ten-year period of inactivity stipulated in the Severino law. However, the Csm, almost split in two, nevertheless authorized the appointment, arguing that this limit did not apply to members of independent authorities. Now that the term has expired, however, the ceiling would apply to any other position, forcing Rustichelli to return to the judiciary: from there, likely, the choice to resign.
