Spanish term or phrase: Juicio de Amparo Directo

Tribunal Federal de Justicia Fiscal y Administrativa emitió una resolución... mediante la cual se inhabilitó a la sociedad por un año. En contra de esta resolución la sociedad presentó un Juicio de Amparo Directo, mismo que se resolvió el pasado 15 de enero del 2004 a favor de la sociedad.

I have found "Juicio de Amparo" as Restraining Order, but this does not fit in this context

Direct Suit for Amparo*

Explanation:
This appears to be from Mexico, and my reply assumes that it is. If not, please ignore.

Use the word "Amparo*" and a note:

T.N. - Amparo, a very powerful provision unique to Mexican law that provides protection against action by authorities. There is no adequate English language translation for this term.

I other words, if you really want to know, you'll have to study Mexican law.

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)

disagree

J. Sanchez: I am sorry, but I disagree. There is always a translation even if you have to do descriptive translation of a term. Maybe a 1-1 ratio does not exist, but that's why context is essential. I believe that "amparo" could be translated as "habeas corpus"

13 mins

-> It could be, but it would be a mistranslation. The whole point of the note is to provide the description you mention, although the subject is rather vast.

neutral

Silvina Jover-Cirillo (X): I do not agree with Chivas. But I don't agree with you either: the amparo is not only from Mexico. It is true, it doesn't have a translation but is an action used in most legal systems. At least, continental ones.

2 hrs

-> True, the term "amparo" is not only used in Mexico, but as you can see, I am only addressing the Mexican amparo here. If the context is from another country, "please ignore". So I miss your point.
