Early life and education

Born in Madrid, Pérez Tremps completed his undergraduate and doctoral studies at the Complutense University of Madrid, where he studied under scholars associated with the university's faculty of law. During his formative years he was influenced by constitutional debates surrounding the Spanish transition to democracy and comparative perspectives from the Council of Europe and the European Communities. He pursued postdoctoral research and training that connected Spanish legal traditions with supranational jurisprudence emerging from the European Court of Justice and the European Court of Human Rights.

Academic career

Pérez Tremps held a professorship at the Complutense University of Madrid and was active in academic networks linking the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, the University of Barcelona, and institutions across Europe. He taught courses on constitutional law and European Union law, participated in programs with the Max Planck Institute for Comparative Public Law and International Law, and collaborated with research centers tied to the Council of Europe and the European Commission. His supervision of doctoral candidates produced scholarship on interactions among the Spanish Constitutional Court, the Court of Justice of the European Union, and the European Court of Human Rights. He contributed to editorial boards of journals connected to the International Association of Constitutional Law and the European Law Journal.

In addition to academia, Pérez Tremps served in roles that bridged scholarship and adjudication. He was appointed as a magistrate on the Constitutional Court of Spain where he participated in deliberations concerning constitutional review, autonomy statutes of Autonomous communities of Spain such as Catalonia and Basque Country, and the constitutional implications of European integration. His tenure intersected with major constitutional litigation influenced by rulings of the Court of Justice of the European Union and advisory opinions from the Council of State (Spain). He also engaged with processes before the European Court of Human Rights concerning compatibility of Spanish measures with the European Convention on Human Rights.

Major publications and research

Pérez Tremps authored monographs and articles addressing interactions between national constitutions and supranational legal orders. His publications examined the relationship between the Spanish Constitution of 1978 and the jurisprudence of the Court of Justice of the European Union, the doctrine of primacy and direct effect, and the protection of fundamental rights under the European Convention on Human Rights. He contributed chapters to edited volumes alongside scholars from the Hague Academy of International Law, the University of Oxford, and the Panthéon-Assas University. His research engaged topics linked to the Treaty on European Union, the Treaty of Lisbon, and comparative studies involving the German Basic Law and the French Constitution. He published in journals associated with the European University Institute and participated in conferences hosted by the Spanish Constitutional Court and the European Court of Human Rights.

Notable cases and jurisprudence

During his judicial career Pérez Tremps was involved in high-profile constitutional deliberations that resonated with decisions from the Court of Justice of the European Union and advisory inputs from the Council of Europe's Venice Commission. He addressed disputes on autonomy statutes brought by Autonomous communities of Spain, contested electoral law provisions that implicated principles found in rulings of the European Court of Human Rights, and matters of administrative competence where precedents from the European Court of Justice were relevant. His opinions and dissents engaged with doctrines developed in cases such as those interpreted from the jurisprudence of Costa v ENEL and later precedents shaping relationships between national courts and EU institutions.
