The trial regarding the tragic train accident in Tempi is ongoing, with proceedings set to continue on July 20, 2026. The court is primarily focused on various requests for postponement related to the investigation by the European Prosecutor's Office concerning contract 717. Legal representatives of the defendants are expected to present their objections and specific claims during this session. This follows an earlier halt in proceedings to address these matters.

The defense has been vocal in seeking to delay the prosecutions until the conclusion of the European investigation, arguing that the charges laid out are largely derived from the European dossier. In particular, the defense attorney for a former executive of ERGOSE has formally requested the annulment of the summons, citing grounds for its invalidity. As the trial progresses, the court will continue to evaluate these requests and the legal arguments put forth by the defense team.
