Career

Rebollo was born in Madrid in 1934 but had close links to Oviedo where his mother was born and his father worked for the municipality. He studied law at the University of Oviedo and graduated in 1956. He became part of the Cuerpo de Intervención General of the Spanish Army against his will and later in the Шаблон:Interlanguage link multi. In 1963 Rebollo as an Army captain was the lawyer of Julián Grimau when the latter was accused of leading the Communist Party of Spain and military rebellion during Francoist Spain. During the defense Rebollo showed several inconsistencies in the prosecutor's story but Grimau was convicted and executed. Several decades after the trial Rebollo pleaded for the rehabilitation of the integrity of Grimau. He furthermore stated that he took up the defense as part of his duties as a military man, Christian and lawyer. Czechoslovakia honored Rebollo by naming a street in Prague after him. In 1970 he was the Spanish representative in the International Congress for Civil Law.

In 1983 he worked as a lawyer for the holding company Rumasa when it was nationalized by the Spanish government on 23 February.

Rebollo was an active member of the political party Union of the Democratic Centre (UCD) and when that party fractured in the early 1980s he became one of the founders of the Democratic and Social Centre party in 1982. He was the president of the party in Asturias and also served as its Deputy in the Congress for the Legislatures III (1986–1989) and IV (1989–1993).
