Federal Judiciary workers begin work stoppage at courts in multiple states over performance evaluations
Published · Updated
What happened
Workers in Mexico's Federal Judiciary stopped work at judicial sites in multiple states on November 6 to oppose new performance evaluations derived from the 2024 judicial reform.
Why it matters
The stoppage can slow court operations in affected locations, including hearings, case processing, and access to judicial services, while also creating street-level disruption around court facilities.
Federal Judiciary workers began a work stoppage on November 6 at dozens of sites across multiple Mexican states to protest a new performance-evaluation regime linked to the 2024 judicial reform. The action combines institutional resistance inside the court system with localized demonstrations around judicial facilities. In the next 24-72 hours, the key question is whether court administrators and federal authorities contain the stoppage to symbolic pressure points or whether operational delays spread to hearings, filings, and public-facing services.
