The court unanimously ruled that none of Salinas Priego’s appeals raised new or relevant questions of constitutional interpretation and therefore did not merit substantive consideration.
Therefore, the Supreme Court did not issue any judgment on the legality of the Mexican Taxation Agency’s resolution, which had already been considered and confirmed by several collegial courts. None of the ministers argued in favor of the complaining companies, and the intervention only summarized the project and called for a few minor amendments.

“Likewise, we continue to wait for the response from the Tax Administration Authority (SAT) to our request to quantify the amount of tax deductions without double and illegal claims in accordance with the law and its own resolutions. Their administrative silence and delay in our process only confirms the sloganeering and political motives on the part of the federal government,” he added.
