Update: Civil and Commercial Courts in México City extend the suspension of activities

June 26, 2020

As OLIVARES previously informed, as a result of the contingency measures adopted due to COVID-19, both the federal and local jurisdictional authorities had agreed to suspend activities from March 18 until June 30, 2020 (except those activities required for causes of urgency or emergency), and decided that no procedural terms and deadlines would run during that period. This suspension included the local Civil and Commercial Courts of Mexico City.

The Mexico City Judicial Council has issued a new communication informing that the suspension of activities will be extended until July 31, 2020, (except from the criminal authorities) and with this, the suspension of all the procedural terms and deadlines until August 3, 2020.

At OLIVARES, we constantly monitor any information provided by the authorities to keep you informed of any possible developments.
