The Mexican airline Magnicharters <\/strong>is facing a highly complex legal and financial landscape after a federal court dismissed its petition for judicial protection. This decision leaves the carrier on the brink of definitive liquidation following the permanent cessation of its commercial flight operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Judicial Rejection of Magnicharters’ Financial Protection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A federal judge dismissed the voluntary bankruptcy protection (concurso mercantil<\/em>) filing submitted by Grupo A\u00e9reo de Monterrey, the parent company of Magnicharters. The airline had formally requested protection under this legal framework on May 11.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ruling was issued on May 13 by Nataly P\u00e9rez Hern\u00e1ndez, who at the time served as the First District Judge for Bankruptcy Matters based in Mexico City, with nationwide jurisdiction. However, the resolution was not made public until this Monday, May 25. According to the issued document, the reason for the dismissal was due to errors in the formal registry: “Upon conducting a search in the correspondence logs, no motion tending to this matter was found.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This legal determination worsens the situation for the company, whose flights had already been temporarily suspended on April 15 by the Secretariat of Infrastructure, Communications and Transportation (SICT), through the Federal Civil Aviation Agency (AFAC), due to discrepancies discovered during an audit process. Prior to this official intervention, the airline had already canceled all of its schedules for two weeks without providing detailed explanations. This measure later became permanent, impacting passengers at airports in Canc\u00fan, Mexico City, and Monterrey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
