The Superior Chamber of the Electoral Tribunal of the Federal Judiciary concluded with three votes in favor and two against that there are not sufficient legal arguments to halt the preparations for the election of the Judiciary. In response to this resolution, the National Electoral Institute (INE) announced that it will proceed with organizing the election, despite more than 100 notifications of injunctions or suspensions that it had received up to last week.
On the other hand, the Plenary of the Federal Judiciary Council (CJF) decided to end the work stoppage of the Judiciary and resume activities in all courts and tribunals across the country. The heads of these bodies have the responsibility to comply with the administrative provisions and verify the attendance of staff. The National Association of Circuit Magistrates and District Judges of the Federal Judiciary also announced the end of the judicial strike, highlighting that a majority vote decision was made to resume work next week.
President Claudia Sheinbaum celebrated the resolutions of the TEPJF, the INE statement, and the CJF decision, indicating that this will allow for the continuation of the reform of the Judiciary and the work of employees, as well as the election process for judges, magistrates, and ministers. In a morning conference, Sheinbaum praised the certainty that this decision brings to the constitutional reform of the Judiciary and the return of workers to their duties, emphasizing the importance of the process continuing without setbacks.
Ultimately, the TEPJF's resolution determined that the INE can proceed with the electoral process for judges, magistrates, and ministers, dismissing the suspensions issued by various district judges.
