The restart was scheduled for March 17 but was rescheduled at the request of the Attorney General's Office and the plaintiff's lawyers.

The trial collapsed last year after one of the judges resigned when her impartiality was questioned. While the trial was ongoing, she was involved in the filming of a documentary about the case.

Football legend Diego Maradona died in 2020 at his home outside the Argentine capital Buenos Aires, aged 60. His medical staff, seven people in total, are accused of medical negligence that allegedly led to Maradona's death.
