Mexican actor and singer Vadhir Derbez has obtained a favorable legal injunction, known as an amparo, regarding a sexual abuse allegation filed by a 19-year-old American model. Derbez and his legal team have consistently denied the accusations, characterizing the complaint as an “attempt at extortion.”

Derbez stated that the ruling follows the identification of “serious irregularities” within the case proceedings and the prosecution’s office. While the injunction is a positive development for his defense, the legal matter remains ongoing and does not constitute a final resolution.

The actor noted that the legal situation has caused significant professional disruption, including the partial cancellation of a musical tour and the necessity of refunding tickets in Guatemala.
