Constitutional Litigation

What is Constitutional Litigation?

  Constitutional Litigation is the defense against violations perpetrated by state actors against Human Rights. It is one of the “guarantees” recognized and granted by the Mexican Constitution, with its latest amendments.

  Constitutional Litigation refers to constitutional proceedings, such as the Amparo Action, Constitutional Controversies, Actions for a Constituional Review, and Class Actions (acciones colectivas), recently incorporated to our Magna Carta, before federal bodies, such as District Courts, Collegiate Circuit Tribunals, and the Supreme Court of Justice.
