About this resource:
Mexico’s General Law of Administrative Responsibility establishes a legal framework that public servants must follow. This applies to all public officials. It contains administrative penalties for those public officials that are involved in corrupt activities such as money laundering, embezzlement and others. Administrative cases can be brought against public officials suspected of committing such offences. The expected administrative sanctions consist in preclusion from participating in future public offices, economic sanctions, bans for misconduct and dismissal of the public official.
