This would suspend de arrest warrant against Billy Álvarez over tax fraud, which is of approximately MXN $2,257,411,000. “The temporary suspension is granted to the effect that it is not presented through public force, regarding the fought warrant. The latter until authorities in charge are informed of the permanent suspension,” added the judge.

This would not be of much help as there is another arrest warrant against him over organized crime and transactions with illicit resources.
