Is it possible for the amparo law to be unconstitutional?

Abstract

In Mexico, the Amparo Law is the optimal mechanism for safeguarding international rights and treaties. This legislation authorizes the amparo trial as the primary means of defending and directly challenging potential threats or violations resulting from the actions of public authorities. Additionally, the Amparo Law oversees the procedures by which constitutional judges can ascertain whether the rights of the governed are being infringed upon. The objective of this work is to analyze the potential constitutional issues with the Amparo trial to identify any discrepancies in the assertion of human rights. Considering these deliberations, it is important to ask: is it possible that the Amparo Law may be unconstitutional in any of its provisions? And if any unconstitutionality is found, how can it be addressed? Therefore, this work is the result of a qualitative scientific research project of a descriptive nature according to the phenomenon of possible unconstitutionalities of the Mexican Amparo trial. In this context, we present contributions to the academic and scientific community regarding the fact that unconstitutionality can be combatted, if it considers specific points that benefit the governed and the exercise of their respective human rights.
