🔍 The judicial stopwatch and the cornered government
The national government is facing an ultimatum with no return. This Friday at 9:30 a.m. is the deadline set by the Federal Administrative Court for the administration of Javier Milei to comply with the ruling that ratifies the full validity of the University Financing Law (Law 27,795). The figure at stake amounts to $2.5 trillion pesos, a disbursement that the Executive Branch itself has already described internally as "the death certificate of the zero deficit."
As reported by Infobae with sources from the Executive Branch, from the Casa Rosada they openly recognize that the money "is not there". The responsibility for redistributing the budget items falls on the chief of staff, Manuel Adorni, who will have to find a way to dose a payment that the ruling party considered unaffordable. Despite the legislative defeat that overturned the presidential veto last year and the ratification in both judicial instances, the libertarian administration did not apply the corresponding budgetary funds, deriving the conflict into a judicial labyrinth where it lost in all previous instances.
The amount owed exceeds by about USD 750 million the disbursement from the IMF that Economy Minister Luis Caputo managed to unblock days earlier in Washington, which illustrates the magnitude of the fiscal impact. The last card that the ruling party is considering is to appeal to the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation requesting suspensive effect, although judicial sources consulted by this newspaper described that possibility as "unlikely" successful.
⚖️ The chain of failures: from the first instance to the Chamber
The origin of the judicial conflict dates back to December 2025, when Judge Martín Cormick, head of the Federal Administrative Court No. 11, granted a collective amparo promoted by the National Interuniversity Council (CIN) and other entities. In that first instance resolution, Cormick stopped Decree 759/2025 with which Milei had suspended the execution of the law, despite the insistence of both chambers of Congress, and considered that said decree presented features of "arbitrariness and manifest illegality".
The magistrate stressed that the Government had justified the suspension of the law by appealing to a norm of lower hierarchy – Article 5 of Law 24,629 – against an express constitutional mandate. Likewise, the judge pointed out that the loss of purchasing power of university professors "continues today, violating labor rights protected by International Human Rights Treaties and by the National Constitution."
The Government appealed, but on March 31, 2026, Chamber III of the Federal Administrative Litigation Chamber – made up of judges Sergio Fernández and Jorge Morán – ratified the precautionary measure, rejected the official arguments and described the Executive's proposals as "not very serious". The chamber members also emphasized that the application of the measure has a limited fiscal impact and does not significantly compromise the public interest. The deadline for compliance was set for 9:30 a.m. on Friday, April 18, 2026.
❝ The loss of purchasing power continues today, violating labor rights protected by International Human Rights Treaties and by the National Constitution. ❞
— Judge Martín Cormick, CAF Court No. 11, December 2025
📋 What Law 27,795 orders and what the ruling requires
The precautionary measure requires immediate compliance with Articles 5 and 6 of Law 27,795, which establish two major obligations for the Executive Branch:
▶ Salary recomposition: update of the salaries of teachers and non-teachers of national public universities, covering the inflationary gap accumulated from December 1, 2023 until the full enactment of the law in September 2025.
▶ Student scholarships: full recomposition and updating of all scholarship programs for students in public higher education, which also suffered a severe deterioration in real terms.
The regulation also contemplates the automatic updating of salaries in accordance with accumulated inflation and establishes that since the transfer of educational competencies to the provinces decades ago, the Nation retains exclusive power over the financing of university education. This singularity makes the universities the only school fund directly under the control of the National Executive, which is why the cut in this sector became an emblem of Milei's "chainsaw" plan.

🎤 Voices of the conflict: university, unions and Casa Rosada
The academic community and the teachers' unions celebrated the Chamber's ruling and began to plan a new federal mobilization. Clara Chevalier, president of the National Federation of University Teachers (CONADU), defined the sentence as "very important news that marks a limit for the Government" and called for a march towards a new Federal University March.
The president of the University Federation of La Plata (FULP), Eugenia Sala, ironized about the presidential rhetoric: "Milei likes to talk about 'everything within the law and nothing outside the law'. Well, within the law: more budget for national universities, better salaries for our teachers and non-teachers, and more budget for student scholarships."
The rector of the National University of Rosario and new president of the CIN, Franco Bartolacci, published on his social networks that the ruling represents "a historic decision" and pointed out that what remains is for the Government to comply with the court order.
From the national government, on the other hand, the message was lapidary. Unobjectionable sources from the Executive Branch told Infobae: "Today we are not going to pay. I say this because we really don't have the money." The ruling party also warned that compliance with the ruling will mean a return to the fiscal deficit, an argument that the Executive has been using as a political shield against judicial and parliamentary demands.

🔮 Possible scenarios after the expiration of the term
|
✅ SCENARIO A — Full or partial compliance
|
|
Estimated probability: Medium-high according to government sources
|
|
Description: The government transfers the $2.5 billion through Cabinet Chief Manuel Adorni, reallocating budget items. Possible start of emergency parity negotiations for university teachers.
|
|
Fiscal impact: End of the primary and financial surplus streak; moderate political impact.
|
|
Union position: Suspension of active strikes; monitoring of effective compliance with salaries.
|
|
⚠️ SCENARIO B — Appeal to the Supreme Court
|
|
Estimated probability: High according to the ruling party, although judicial sources see it as unlikely
|
|
Description: The Executive files an extraordinary appeal before the Supreme Court requesting suspensive effect to gain time.
|
|
Legal viability: The filing of the appeal does not have automatic suspensive effects. The House could grant them, but the background is scarce.
|
|
Risk: Deepening of the institutional conflict and possible call for a new Federal University March.
|
|
🚨 SCENARIO C — Contempt of Court
|
|
Estimated probability: Low, but not ruled out
|
|
Description: The Government ignores the deadline without filing an appeal or making any payment, which constitutes a contempt of court.
|
|
Legal consequences: The judge of first instance could apply astreintes (fines for non-compliance) or refer the case to the Court ex officio.
|
|
Political consequences: Explosive scenario: new mass march, indefinite teachers' strike, institutional crisis.

🎓 The university system in check: beyond salaries
The conflict over university funding is not only a salary dispute: it is the most visible expression of the tension between the fiscal adjustment model promoted by the Milei administration and the defense of the public higher education system that Argentina built over decades. According to the CIN report, transfers to national universities accumulate a real drop of 45.6% between 2023 and 2026, which puts at risk everything from the payment of basic services to the maintenance of university hospitals, research laboratories and student canteens.
At the beginning of 2026, the Undersecretary of University Policies Alejandro Álvarez and the Secretary of Education Carlos Torrendell met with rectors of the CIN to explore the possibility of promoting a new law that would replace the current one with less fiscal impact. The project did not prosper and the ruling party opted to bet on a favorable resolution in the courts, a strategy that also failed.
The teachers' unions, which are holding active strikes – in what some are already calling the "Japanese-style" modality – are preparing to relaunch the massive call in the style of the historic mobilization of 2024, marked as one of the largest since the return of democracy and the largest suffered by the libertarian administration. The prospect of half a million people back on the streets generates, according to different sources, "anxiety" in some offices of the Casa Rosada.
