As part of a continuous effort by the Mexican judiciary system
to improve the administration of justice and the quality of
rulings, the Federal Tax and Administrative Court has recently
created two specialized chambers: (1) the Online Trials Chamber,
which shall attend trials filed through the internet; and (2) the
State Activity Chamber, in charge of ruling on cases related to
decisions issued by administrative authorities.
The topics covered by the State Activity Chamber will include,
among others, antitrust; telecommunications; health protection;
banking and finance; international air transportation; oil; energy,
including nuclear power; insurance and bonds; and pensions.
With the creation of the specialized chambers, administrative
litigation in Mexico will be enhanced, with rulings reflecting
increased technical knowledge and exhibiting greater
congruence.
