Tijuana, July 25. Baja California has been lagging for 80 years in its civil and family law codes, so the Chamber of Deputies is launching the "Open Parliament of Everyday Justice" to deliver a more rapid and expeditious law of "great significance," reported Evangelina Moreno Guerra.
The federal representative from Tijuana hosted the forums for the creation of the National Code of Civil and Family Procedures, which will be part of the agenda for the next legislative session, which begins in September.
"With these forums, which will be held in each district in Mexico, we want to hear the voices of the country's experts. Representatives, senators, notary associations, lawyers, human rights experts, and civil society should participate in the efforts to create an inclusive guiding document," he stated.
Moreno Guerra emphasized that the new code aims to resolve two out of three of the most common lawsuits, mentioning that alimony payments will be mandatory for the spouse who has custody of the child(ren), given that there are currently lawsuits that last up to 10 years.
