As OLIVARES previously informed, due the contingency measures adopted to prevent the outbreak of the COVID-19 virus, both federal and local jurisdictional authorities, suspended their activities from March 18 to April 19, 2020, leaving only shift to post guard in cases of urgency and emergency and decreed that no procedural terms would run during said period.

Now, the suspension of activities and interruption of procedural deadlines have been extended up to May 5, 2020, for:

  • Supreme Court of Justice
  • Collegiate Circuit Courts
  • Single-judge Circuit Courts
  • District Courts
  • Civil and Commercial Courts
  • Federal Court of Administrative Affairs, including the Special Chamber for Intellectual Property Matters and the Special Chamber for Environmental and Regulatory Matters.

The decrees announcing the extensions have been published on the corresponding Institutional websites and it is expected that they are published in the Federal Official Gazette shortly.

OLIVARES will keep monitoring and informing regarding any updates.
