Description
Summary:In the second half of the 19th Century, the administration of justice experienced a formal reform aiming to modernize it through the professionalization of its personnel. This article analyzes only the lawyers and their practices, as first instance judges were recruited among them, It offers a profile of those involved in the rural courts in Tlaxcala, and especially an analysis of the often confrontational relations they had with their clients. Finally, it shows that the cost of justice was so high that the use of tinterillos, now illegal jural advisors, was essential to gain access to the courts and that there was a continuum between tinterillos and lawyers that makes the analysis ineffective in terms of opposition between the two statutes.
