Surely you have wondered if it is correct for someone to appear at the address of your company in order to present a notification regarding a criminal process, and the answer is no, here we will explain why.
Types of notifications
Before we begin, we will talk to you about the ways to notify, which are established in the national code of criminal procedures in article number 82, which verbatim establishes:
Article 82 of the National Code of Criminal Procedures.
Forms of notification Notifications will be made personally, by list, bench or judicial bulletin as appropriate and by edicts:
Accused a relative of a crime in Mexico? Do you need to know if it is a crime to bring weapons into Mexico? Do you need to know if it is a crime to bring marijuana into Mexico? The prosecutor is accusing me of having committed a crime that I did not commit? Has your loved one been in jail in Mexico for years?
If you are in one of these situations, hire an online consultation.
I. Personally, they may be:
a) At Hearing;
b) By any of the technological means indicated by the interested party or his legal representative;
c) At the premises of the jurisdictional body, or
d) At the address established for this purpose.
So, can you notify me of a criminal proceeding at my company?
No, if the defendant does not establish that he is notified at his place of work in this case the company, this diligence should not be practiced because it is flawed by not complying with the exact letter of the precept indicated above.
Although there is an exception, however, as the word itself mentions it, there are cases in which there is no alternative to this solution, remember that in this case the owner of the company would be the person who is asking the question, therefore it is who I would be taking the role of the accused, and the other part would be the victim, is who provided the address, in this case the address of the company.
It is for this reason that the accused has the right to provide an address independent of his place of work (company).
Then, only if the victim does not know the address of the defendant is it possible to provide that of the company, but we must not ignore the fact that the defendant can provide a new address to which he must be notified.
