The indirect amparo proceeding is filed before District Courts and applies in the following cases:
➤ Laws, international treaties, regulations, decrees, or administrative provisions of general applicability that cause harm to the complainant—that is, those that affect or violate their individual constitutional rights.
➤ Acts committed by authorities other than judicial, labor, or administrative courts, such as a government ministry, a governor, or a public prosecutor, when such acts violate constitutional rights.
➤ Acts by judicial, labor, or administrative courts carried out outside of judicial proceedings or after a proceeding has concluded.
➤ Acts issued within a trial that, if executed, would be impossible to remedy.
➤ Acts executed within or outside a judicial proceeding that affect individuals who did not participate in it.
➤ Federal laws or acts that infringe upon the sovereignty of the States or Mexico City, or conversely, State or Mexico City laws or acts that violate federal sovereignty.
➤ Resolutions by the Public Prosecutor’s Office determining not to pursue or to withdraw from criminal prosecution (non-exercise or withdrawal of criminal action), or acts related to reparation of damages or civil liability arising from a criminal offense.
➤ In the case of acts issued by Single-Judge Circuit Courts (Tribunales Unitarios de Circuito) that do not constitute final judgments, the amparo must be filed before a different Single-Judge Circuit Court.
