Wadys Tejada

Wadys Tejada is a Colombian lawyer known for his advocacy in public law and constitutional matters. He gained prominence after filing a legal challenge against President Gustavo Petro's Decreto 920 of 2023, which sought to establish a new customs sanction regime. Tejada argued that the decree violated constitutional principles by granting the executive extraordinary legislative powers, leading to the Constitutional Court's decision to annul the decree while allowing time for Congress to legislate a new framework.
