Mexico City. Due to a tie vote, the Second Chamber of the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation (SCJN) left its decision in suspense on whether or not to attract the first appeal on a judicial suspension against the election process of judges, magistrates and ministers contemplated for 2025.
In a private session last Wednesday, November 13, Minister Yasmín Esquivel presented a project to deny the request of the Collegiate Court on Administrative Matters of the Twentieth Circuit of Chiapas that asks the Court to appeal a complaint against a provisional suspension that was granted since a District Court of the same state.
However, sources from the high court reported that the project was supported by Minister Lenia Batres Guadarrama, but rejected by Minister Luis María Aguilar and Alberto Pérez Dayán, which generated a tie.
And the fifth member of the Second Chamber, Javier Laynez Potisek, did not participate in the session because he traveled to the United States to attend as a spectator the hearing of the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR), in which he heard the positions for and against judicial reform.
In the public session of the Chamber, Minister President Pérez Dayán confirmed the versions about the tie, instructing Minister Esquivel’s five matters to be registered on the list, that is, pending.
“Considering that given the voting circumstances, particularly some ties, all of Minister Yasmín Esquivel Mossa’s issues will have to be listed,” he said.
It is expected that the discussion of the project will be resumed next time.
