The Federal Judiciary Council (CJF) ratified during the plenary session on Wednesday, which will not be hired to judges or magistrates who have lost the judicial election, so 85 courts and courts will have as holders the secretaries of agreements.
In that context, the Minister Lilia Mónica López Benítez gave up renouncing and returning to her position as a magistrate, a place where she will remain until 2027, when the new judicial election is held, according to sources of the Judicial Power of the Federation (PJF).
Participants in the Plenary meeting said that the list of attachctions of holders or alternates for the positions of judges and magistrates should not be assigned to those who decided to compete so that their permanence in the Judiciary was ratified at the polls on June 1, and that way the disposal of the proposal presented by the Commission of Assignctions was confirmed.
In that same session, the directors Sergio Javier Molina and Lilia Mónica López Benítez turned back to their resignation to the PJF and asked the CJF to approve their return to their courts of origin to continue their career as magistrates, which will conclude in 2027, explained the sources consulted.
In this way, López Benítez, who has served in the PJF as Judicial Officer, Actuaria, Secretary of Court, Secretary of the Court, Judge of the District and Magistrate of the Collegiate Court of Circuit, as well as Executive Secretary of Surveillance, Information and Evaluation of the CJF, will restart its work in the Seventh Collegiate Court in Criminal Matters of the First Circuit.
