On June 10, the Supreme Court of Argentina upheld Kirchner's sentence. In 2022, she was sentenced to six years in prison in a corruption case, but did not serve any time, because at that time she was the current vice president of Argentina.

An Argentine court on June 17 allowed Kirchner to serve time at home. It was clarified that the ex-president would need to provide a list of people, including family members, who would visit the apartment where she was staying.
