**Baja California’s Judicial Elections to Differ from Federal Procedures: Governor Marina del Pilar**
The government of Baja California received the reform to the Judicial Power on Wednesday for approval by the State Congress. Governor Marina del Pilar Ávila Olmeda stated that once the Congress approves the federal reform to the Judicial Power, it will be “harmonized” with the laws governing the state.
Ávila Olmeda clarified that the selection of magistrates and judges in Baja California will not follow the same popular election process that will be implemented at the federal level. “In Baja California, the process will be different. Once the federal Judicial Power reform is approved, we will start discussions and work locally, and we will inform you in due time,” she said during her weekly press conference.
The reform, when approved by the Congress of the State, is expected to impact 160 judges and magistrates. Alejandro Isaac Fragozo López, head of the Judicial Power of Baja California (PJBC), mentioned that the selection process for state judges and magistrates will be carried out by a committee composed of members from PJBC, the Congress of Baja California, and the Executive Power.
Fragozo López noted that all selected candidates for judicial positions will be thoroughly analyzed, regulated, and examined to ensure that the best candidates are appointed. He also mentioned that two judges have been suspended in 2024 for irregular actions. One such case involved a judge who failed to order preventive detention for a person caught transporting four dismembered bodies.
