Judge Castro is based in Palma, the main city in the Balearic Islands where the fraud investigation started four years ago. Though no date was set on Monday for the trial, Spanish news reports suggested that it was likely to be held in the second half of 2015.

Both Princess Cristina and her husband have denied any wrongdoing. If convicted of tax fraud, she could be sentenced to four years in prison, but separate money-laundering charges that could have exposed her to as much as 11 years in prison were dropped in November.

Princess Cristina’s problems stem mostly from her role in Aizoon, a real estate and consulting company that she owned with her husband. Aizoon is one of the companies that Mr. Urdangarin is alleged to have created to siphon fees paid to his Nóos Institute, the foundation that he used to organize sports events.

So, this is what a renovated monarch looks like.
