Monreal: Majority in Congress will not submit to order against judicial reform

Monreal confirmed that it is not an order from a District Court, but from two, one from Chiapas and another from Morelos, which seek to suspend the discussion of judicial reform.

“It is not only a violation of the principle of legality but also a flagrant invasion of the powers of the Legislature, contrary to the Constitution,” said Monreal.

“We cannot accept this, it is unacceptable because it would imply subordinating the will of the people deposited in this sovereignty and in the congresses,” he said.

On the social network X, the coordinator of the legislators warned that it is “unheard of that the complainants, that is, those who promote the protection, are the heads of the District Courts themselves.”

In the video, the legislator insisted that legally, “the analysis and discussion and, if applicable, approval of the opinion regarding the constitutional reform in judicial matters cannot be suspended.”

“This provision to suspend acts of another power through amparo is absurd, grotesque and ignorant, since Article 61 of the Amparo Law provides in its first section that the amparo trial is inadmissible against additions or reforms to the Political Constitution of the United Mexican States and this implies that none of the acts that lead to the achievement of such an end can be subject to challenge,” he said.

The decision of the two courts is “legal ignorance,” he said.
