“We fully trust that the Supreme Court, as the last bastion of defending freedom and democracy in Mexico, will protect the principles that govern us and safeguard the fundamental rights of Mexicans,” said the Jufed.
The announcement about the resumption of jurisdictional activities comes after a few days ago the Federal Judiciary Council (CJF) delivered to the Senate all the necessary information to begin the process of electing judges and magistrates scheduled for 2025.
Although a date was not specified for when they would restart work, the Jufed stated that it will continue with the legal fight undertaken against the judicial reform.
The decision to resume work also occurs a week after the Supreme Court decided to review the judicial reform, despite the fact that it does not have specific rules to do so because it is a constitutional modification.
This Saturday, in the Senate of the Republic, the draw for the positions of judges and magistrates that will be submitted to the 2025 election will be held, so the workers called for a protest outside the legislative precinct on Avenida Paseo de la Reforma.
Just this Friday, President Claudia Sheinbaum criticized that judges and magistrates had been unemployed for almost three months collecting their respective fees, while she reiterated her support for the judicial reform promoted by her predecessor Andrés Manuel López Obrador.
