The amendment to the General Organic Code of Processes (COGEP),
which entered into force on June 26, 2019, modified article 64(4)
substantially modifying the interruption of the statute of
limitations. Thus, before the reform, COGEP established that:
"The effects of citations are... 4. Interruption the statute
of limitations." While after the amendment, it establishes
that: "The effects of citations are... 4. Interruption of the
statute limitations. If the lawsuit is summoned within six
months of being filed, the interruption of the statute of
limitations will be rolled back
to the date in which the lawsuit was filed."1 Due to the
amendment in reference, ¿is the right to legal certainty
compromised?
