FGE Tech Center Bolsters Law Help

“FGE’s Technology Assistance Center: Legal aid in remote areas via mobile units. LGBTQ+ hate crime stats under scrutiny. Samara Suarez case demands justice. Platform drivers slow to register.”

### Remembering the Operations of the Technology Assistance Center of the FGE

To streamline the complaint process in the more remote areas of Tijuana, the State Attorney General’s Office (FGE) has permanently established the Technology Assistance Center. According to the state coordinator, Jesús Antonio Villalpando Cuevas, these centers have been operational since this year, utilizing mobile units equipped with satellite internet and cutting-edge technology.

The objective of this initiative is to bring legal assistance to citizens in distant communities. Villalpando Cuevas explained, “We aim to provide legal advice to citizens who have legal doubts. Additionally, we issue documents for lost items and can refer cases to other authorities if a crime is involved.”

These mobile units allow citizens to file complaints directly or receive assistance to do so from their homes via the FGE’s website. “If a citizen tells us they made a complaint and it wasn’t followed up on, we can track where the complaint is, which public prosecutor has it, and which investigation unit is handling it. The citizen can then follow up directly,” Villalpando Cuevas elaborated.

In addition to the units operating in Tijuana’s neighborhoods, another unit has been deployed to Mexicali and its Valley, with plans for a third unit to serve Ensenada. “Each unit is staffed with two public prosecutors. This new tool enables citizens to submit legal documents, reports of lost items, or complaints without having to visit the office,” he concluded.
