Mexico Supreme Court legal rulings

Overview

The Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation (SCJN) has issued and is reviewing significant legal rulings regarding family and social protections.

In one ruling, the court established a mandatory criterion for economic compensation during divorces involving the separation of assets. This measure is designed to protect individuals, particularly women, who performed domestic work and family care during a marriage. The rule requires courts to include mortgage or credit payments made during the marriage in compensation calculations, acknowledging that domestic labor enables a spouse to build personal wealth, though it does not alter legal property ownership.

Additionally, the SCJN is set to review a case concerning the visitation rights of adolescent children whose parents are accused of femicide. The court will analyze whether such visits can occur in penitentiary centers without risking the integrity of the minors. The upcoming resolution aims to prioritize the best interests of the child and establish legal precedents for similar cases involving the death of a mother and the rights of her children.
