Overview
- The Supreme Court admitted the commercial lawsuit on August 1 under Minister Jorge Pardo, summoning Nafin and listing Tesofe as a third interested party.
- Nafin allegedly emptied three trust accounts on April 1 under “superior instructions,” transferring the balances to the federal treasury without prior notice.
- The CJF seeks the return of 10,327 million pesos, disclosure of account statements from March, a judicial finding of contract breach, and interest accruing since April 1.
- The disputed trusts funded complementary pensions for judges and magistrates, judicial infrastructure projects, and housing maintenance for judges assigned away from their residence.
- Because litigation involving the CJF is heard by the Supreme Court, the case will continue there as the CJF is dissolved on September 1 and replaced by the Órgano de Administración Judicial.
