Mexico /
At midnight, on WhatsApp and without making it publicthe Electoral Court determined not to process the claim for annulment in the Álvaro Obregón mayor’s office that the PAN requested and transfer it to the Regional Chamber of Mexico City, after due to an error by the General Secretariat of Agreements the matter was not heard in session.
Judge Reyes Rodríguez Mondragón and Judge Janine Otálora Malassis did not agree, and accused the general secretary of agreements Ernesto Santana Bracamontes of unjustified delay, opaque conduct, of harming the impartiality of the Electoral Court, of hiding the receipt of the demand and violating the PAN’s right to justice, of failing to comply with the law that requires immediate turnaround during the electoral period and to change the way of the trial so that it would not be resolved in a public session.
MILLENNIUM revealed this Monday that the Superior Chamber of the Electoral Tribunal of the Judicial Branch of the Federation met hours before the change of government in Álvaro Obregón, with the idea that the opposition abandoned the legal dispute, despite having all the elements to demand an annulment, after the INE confirmed that the campaign spending ceiling had been exceeded.
At the end of the session, the magistrates learned that the BREAD presented his claim at 11:40 a.m., but the General Secretariat of Agreements in charge of Ernesto Santana Bracamontesdid not even report it or turn it over, putting it at risk that the matter could be resolved and, therefore, became irreparable.
The magistrate Reyes Rodríguez Mondragón He revealed that it was until midnight, when, via chat in private voting, a project was circulated that proposed that the Superior Chamber did not resolve.
Rodríguez Mondragón published the private vote that he issued together with Janine Otálora against the majority decision, in which they exhibit the unjustified conduct of the General Secretariat of Agreements which led to the lawsuit not being resolved in a timely manner and which, therefore, Javier López Casarín could protest without analyzing the illegality of exceeding the campaign spending ceiling.
First, they stated that throughout the day on September 30, the secretary kept giving notice of the receipt of the means of challenge, with the exception of this one, without any justification.
Magistrate Felipe Fuentes circulated the project at 11:35 p.m. on the same Monday, but the record indicates that he was given his turn until 00:28 on October 1without the rest of the magistrates having been notified of the demand.
“The General Secretariat of Agreements of this Superior Chamber did not provide information to the magistrates of the reception and shift of the case, until the draft chamber agreement was circulated. The foregoing represents opaque conduct on the part of the aforementioned secretariat, that is, contrary to the principles of transparency and maximum publicity that should govern the processing of judicial files.”
“Such conduct also damages the perception of impartiality that should govern the actions of judging persons. In the case, suspicion is generated about the reasons why the General Secretariat of Agreements He hid the reception of the trial and his turn, as well as the reasons for the delay in the filing of the file.”
Furthermore, they accused that it was the General Secretariat of Agreements itself that changed the way of the lawsuit, because while the PAN filed an appeal for reconsideration, It was presented as a general matter to be voted on in private chat.
What, as a rule, corresponds directly to the magistracy to which the case is referred, to determine whether the path is correct or not, and not to the General Secretariat of Agreements. Furthermore, if the inauguration of the mayor’s office was at 8:00 a.m. on October 1, the Superior Chamber was able to analyze it and resolve it.
Hence Rodríguez Mondragón and Otálora Malassis They demanded that investigations be carried out and responsibilities be discharged for the actions of Secretary Santana Bracamontes.
With the majority decision taken in the early hours of this Monday, the election of mayor Álvaro Obregón can no longer be annulled, Well, the Mexico City Regional Court could analyze it as an irreparable fact after a legal protest was already submitted.
