Deputies Fast-Track Amparo Law Fix, Weigh Executive Wording to Avoid Retroactivity

Committees plan a draft on Oct. 13 focusing on how new procedural rules apply to ongoing cases.

Overview

  • The Senate’s reform was formally sent to the Chamber of Deputies and turned to the Justice and Hacienda committees for joint analysis due to links with the Fiscal Code.
  • JUCOPO chief Ricardo Monreal outlined a schedule to issue a committee opinion on Monday, with plenary debate targeted for Oct. 14–15.
  • President Claudia Sheinbaum said the executive delivered alternative wording to remove perceived retroactivity and clarify the disputed transitory article.
  • The Senate chose not to issue a fe de erratas and instead forwarded the minute to San Lázaro, and any changes adopted by deputies would return to the upper chamber for final approval.
  • Senator Manuel Huerta denied being the lone author of the controversial clause, arguing it seeks to curb abusive tax litigation as opponents warn of risks to amparo suspensions.
