The Auditoría Superior del Estado (ASE) in Chihuahua reported significant administrative justice results, noting that since 2019, the agency has filed 2,766 administrative complaints and recovered a total of 1,300,443,173 pesos. Auditor Superior Héctor Acosta Félix stated that total recoveries increased by 20 percent compared to the previous year.

In a separate legal development, a federal court officially recognized the State of Chihuahua as a victim in a case involving the illegal diversion of 98.6 million pesos. The Chihuahua Anti-Corruption Prosecutor's Office has accused Federal Judge Roberto Antonio Alcoverde Martínez of acting illegally to strip the Ministry of Finance of its victim status. The prosecution alleges the judge acted in collusion with an immune defendant to obstruct the case involving Javier Corral, whose transition to a senate position granted him constitutional immunity and complicated legal proceedings.
