Eight justices from Mexico's Supreme Court resign in protest against a judicial overhaul that threatens their independence and expresses their disagreement with political attacks against the judiciary.
Political analysts note that the resignation of the justices sends a strong message from both the Supreme Court and the judiciary, signaling a commitment to dignity amidst political pressures.
The overhaul demands that judges be elected and overseen by a disciplinary tribunal of elected officials, raising concerns about judicial independence and potential governmental control.
With over 500 legal challenges to the new electoral process for judges, critics assert that the judicial reform is an unconstitutional move that compromises the integrity of the judiciary.
