What Comes Next After Palma’s Carriage Rule Was Annulled

Published: May 28, 2026
Answer
What happens next after the Palma court decision on carriage heat bans?
Because the judgment is not yet final, the city can still pursue further legal steps. The administration is also likely to need a proper equality assessment and, if it wants a new rule, a clearer and more graduated approach to heat warnings. Any future regulation will need to be both legally complete and practical to apply in Palma.
