Mexico City. By processing legal impediments to three ministers, Grupo Elektra, led by Ricardo Salinas Pliego, managed to postpone the discussion of projects in the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation (SCJN) that were to confirm the company’s tax credits totaling almost 35 billion weights.
In a session of the Second Chamber, this Wednesday the project of Minister Alberto Pérez Dayán on the direct protection in review 6321/2024 filed by Grupo Elektra with which it seeks to avoid the payment of a tax debt for 33 thousand 306 million 476 thousand 349 was withdrawn. pesos, according to government calculations.
The project, which according to high court sources was in favor of the SAT, was withdrawn because yesterday the same company promoted a legal impediment to prevent Minister Pérez Dayán and Ministers Lenia Batres Guadarrama and Yasmín Esquivel Mossa from participating in the discussion of said matter.
The above prohibits the Second Chamber from issuing a ruling until the request for legal impediment is first resolved, which in this case was turned over to Minister Jorge Mario Pardo Rebolledo.
Today, the Second Chamber also left “on the list”, that is, pending, the direct protection under review 3842/2024 and the appeal 419/2024 of Elektra, regarding tax debts calculated at around 65 million pesos.
The above due to another impediment that the company’s legal defense processed to request that Batres not participate in that matter. The appeal was turned over to Minister Loretta Ortiz Ahlf.
Meanwhile, last week, the Second Chamber postponed the discussion of a project by Yasmín Esquivel on protection 5654/2024, with which the company seeks to clear the payment of 1 thousand 431 million 466 thousand 606 pesos.
The project is also about to agree with the SAT, so Elektra promoted another legal impediment so that Esquivel and Batres do not know about the matter.
“The impartiality with which he can resolve the matter is clear, since it is public knowledge, that it is in the interest of the current President of the Republic (AMLO), to collect the taxes determined from Grupo Elektra, SAB de CV, despite the fact that the same They are still in litigation.
“Therefore, there is a well-founded fear that the Minister Speaker (Yasmín Esquivel), who agrees with the transformation of the country, supports the government in its incursions into the Judiciary, defends the position of the executive; have the criteria to resolve the matter impartially, helping the government to collect taxes, even without really analyzing the unconstitutionality that arose in the matter,” Elektra argued in the impediment.
