The Argentine judge returned from the trial of Diego Maradona's medical staff after being criticised for taking part in a documentary about the case.
Seven members of the legendary soccer player's medical team have been charged with negligent murder in relation to his death in 2020. They deny the allegations.
Prosecutor Patricio Ferrari accused judge Julieta Makintach of acting "not like a judge, but like an actress."
She was one of three judges in the postponed case. A decision on whether new negotiations will be ordered Thursday.
Maradona recovered when she died in November 2020 from a heart attack at the age of 60, before her previous medical team, including neurosurgeons, doctors and nighttime medical nurses. They argue that the football star refused further treatment and should have stayed home longer after his surgery.
If you are convicted
, you will be in prison for 8 to 25 years.
The long-awaited process begins on March 11th and should continue until July. However, his future was raised in question.
Judge Makintach said there was "no option" than apologizing from the case.
Judge Julieta Makintach had refused to approve the shooting operations inside the Buenos Aires courthouse, but her credibility was raised questionable after film material appeared from the trailer.
As a trailer for the
documentary series, God's Justice took place in court. At Richter Makintach.
Maradona's daughter Gianna and his former partner Veronica Ojeda both cried after seeing the film's material.
MS Ojeda's lawyer Mario Baudry said the case was "compromised" and that he felt that starting head-on was "the healthiest".
The
Court will decide whether the case can continue with the new judge or whether it must be started again from the beginning.
In July, the eighth member of the Maradona Medical Team faces another court hearing by a ju apprentice.
