The Federal Judicial Council agreed yesterday that, starting next Monday, all district courts and circuit courts will resume their activities and the legal deadlines and terms of their proceedings.
By a vote of 5 to 2, the councillors voted in favour of resuming work at the plenary session on Wednesday, after federal justice administrators began a strike on 21 August in protest against judicial reform.
One of the votes against lifting the strike was from the Chief Justice of the Court, Norma Piña. “I inform you that the plenary session of the CJF, in a session held today, by majority vote agreed: that next Monday, September 23, 2024, the suspension of deadlines and terms of trials processed in federal jurisdictional bodies and administrative areas will be lifted,” says circular 18/2024, voted on this Wednesday.
The other agreement reached is to set up a dialogue table with federal justice administrators, with the aim of guaranteeing their labor rights.
This agreement was reached after the National Association of Circuit Magistrates and District Judges of the Judicial Branch of the Federation (JUFED) asked the CJF yesterday to set up this table in order to guarantee the labor rights of judicial workers, as a precondition for lifting the suspension of activities.
