In this series, we explore other countries’ legal systems to become more acquainted with their procedures. 

In this episode, Host Cecilia Lahaye (Bird & Bird LLP) sits down with Manuel Moctezuma (Moctezuma Castro S. C.) to uncover the unique aspects of Mexico’s legal system. As a civil law jurisdiction, Mexico does not have a discovery process but includes an evidentiary stage along with oral and final arguments. Manuel also unpacks a major judicial reform enacted last year at the constitutional level—starting this June, judges will be elected by popular vote. These changes are expected to reshape the judiciary. Join us as we dive into these key differences and explore how Mexico’s legal system shapes justice.
