	4. Mexican Labour Law (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		Section XVI of Article 123 of the Mexican Constitution states that "both employers and workers shall have the right to organize for the defence of their respective interests, by forming unions, professional associations, etc." Furthermore, the introductory clause of Article 123 has been construed to protect the right to bargain collectively.
		Mexican labour law protects against interference in the exercise of freedom of association by prohibiting dismissals except for just cause, by regulating collective layoffs and terminations so that they take place in order of reverse seniority, and by directly prohibiting many forms of interference.
		Thus, a discharged Mexican worker does not have to show that antiunion motivation was a factor in the dismissal; the burden always rests with the employer to prove that the reason for the discharge falls within the statutory definition of just cause for discharge.

	New gaming rules at odds with Mexican Constitution
		Upon receipt of the demand, Justice José Ramón Cossio Díaz notified the Mexican Senate so that members could participate in the hearing process, plus he declared that the effects of the Regulation will not be suspended during the time needed to adjudicate the challenge, a period that is expected to take at least four months.
		The constitutional challenge is mainly based on two legal arguments: First, the President and his executive branch are not authorized to legislate gaming and raffle matters that, according to Article 73 of the Constitution, are the responsibility of the legislative branch of government.
		There is nothing to keep the Chamber of Deputies from voting in favor of the new federal gaming law (that even though it is the subject of high-profile debate still seems to be languishing in the Government Committee), while at the same time annulling the Regulation and its legal provisions.
