Eva Isabel Sanjurjo Rios

Eva Isabel Sanjurjo Rios serves as a Permanent Labor Professor in the Department of Public Law at the Faculty of Law, University of León, specializing in Procedural Law with a focus on civil and criminal procedure, evidence law, and legal education innovation. Her work bridges theoretical scholarship with practical judicial applications through the DEPROULE PROCEDURAL LAW research group.

Her academic foundation includes a PhD from the University of León (2012) with the dissertation The expert opinion in the civil process, supervised by Dr. Pedro Álvarez Sánchez de Movellán and Dr. Piedad González Granda. This research trajectory established her expertise in evidentiary frameworks within civil litigation.

Dr. Sanjurjo Rios' research spans critical procedural domains including electronic evidence authentication (particularly social media communications), collective redress mechanisms in consumer law, judicial ethics oversight, and mediation efficacy. She critically examines how digital evidence volatility impacts criminal proceedings and proposes reforms for expert testimony reliability under Spain's Civil Procedure Act. Her scholarship consistently addresses tensions between procedural efficiency and fundamental rights protections.

Analysis of her publication trends reveals deep engagement with technology's impact on legal processes, evidenced by extensive work on WhatsApp evidence protocols (2022) and digital evidence preservation (2020). She simultaneously advances legal education through service-learning integration, developing the 'Aula Judicial' simulation model (2024) that combines community engagement with courtroom skill development.

As a core member of the DEPROULE PROCEDURAL LAW research group, she contributes to systematic analysis of procedural law implementation and reform proposals. Her collaborative work emphasizes practical solutions for evidence handling, judicial ethics compliance, and pedagogical innovation within Spain's legal framework.
