Case Number: AR 341 /2022

Case Summary: On November 23, 2022, the First Chamber of the Supreme Court of Mexico granted an “amparo” (habeas corpus) against the last paragraph article Article 1392 Bis of the Civil Code for Mexico City, which ordered the erasure of publicly available digital information regarding a deceased person unless, in their will, the testator expressed their intention to preserve it. In its decision, the Court found that the challenged portion of the law was unconstitutional since it was contrary to the rights of freedom of expression and access to information. Particularly the Court considered that the terms in which the provision was drafted instigated undesirable self-censorship to avoid potential liability. The Supreme Court pointed out that the so called-right to be forgotten was not regulated in Mexico and thus could not be applied without nuances since, according to the Constitution, public information remained as such regardless of factors such as the time that could affect the very essence.

Case Significance: The decision establishes a binding or persuasive precedent within its jurisdiction.
