TEPJF Upholds INE Oversight of National Parties, Confirms Fines for MC and PAN

The decisions delineate INE’s remit, leaving local party oversight to state electoral bodies.

Overview

  • The Sala Superior unanimously validated the INE’s registry of obligated entities for transparency and data protection, rejecting Morena’s challenge and dismissing claims about electronic notification failures.
  • Movimiento Ciudadano must pay MXN 993,415.50 for failing to timely amend its statutes on gender-based political violence prevention and substantive parity, with the court finding the INE properly individualized the sanction after persistent noncompliance since 2023.
  • The court upheld a MXN 3 million penalty on PAN after concluding the party did not substantiate the material execution of a purported fiscalization training course.
  • TEPJF President Gilberto Bátiz urged legitimacy through serious judicial work and budgetary rationality, cautioning against personal protagonism and unnecessary public exposure.
  • The Toluca Regional Chamber reported 99% effectiveness with 924 matters handled and over 97% resolved in under 15 days, as the Judicial Administration Body targets full electronic notifications within six months.
