The disciplinary case study of Commercial Law is made up of 7 iterations of the phases of the case study that

6.3 Tax matters.
6.4 Labor matters.
6.5 Administrative matter.
6. 5.1 Law compared to other financial systems.
The choice of the case of the credit company FICREA for the disciplinary case study in commercial matters was
due to the interesting conjunction of theoretical and practical knowledge that is related, so that by taking it and
analyzing it the student has the opportunity to visualize various disciplines of the law intertwined in a real legal
situation and is in a position to understand the complexity of his future and perhaps already current working life
in the commercial area, without losing sight of the social commitment that as a lawyer must prevail in his
professional practice.
Given the facts presented in the case, the lawyer has several areas of opportunity by including elements from
various disciplines of law, so care was taken to weigh the commercial aspect over the complexity of the case.
1. Facts.
2. Identification of the problem.
3. Identification of applicable legislation.
4. Development of the problem and its different scenarios.
Methodology
The case study constitutes a methodology that describes a real or complex simulated event that allows the
professional to apply their knowledge and skills to solve a problem; The student implements both conceptual
and procedural content and attitudes in a given context and situation. This teaching-learning strategy allows
you to develop critical thinking skills, communicative competence of knowing how to argue and contrast,
promote collaborative learning and respectful listening to the opinions of others, as well as solve problems and
apply and integrate knowledge from different disciplinary areas. The general methodology to be used or study
steps is made up of three repetitive phases, which are:
● a) Phase of reception or analysis of the case through reading, study or investigation of the case.
● b) Interaction, discussion or deliberation phase, where findings are shared, situations are debated and
positions are defended.
6 The graphic representation that allows you to visualize all the thematic components and the objective of the course is the purpose of representing them
through an infographic, map, wordle -www.wordle.net-, or other mnemonic form that favors it.

● c) Phase of confrontation, conclusion or resolution of the case, in a reflective manner, students are
able to choose their action if a similar case is presented to them in their professional performance.
The learning unit Disciplinary Case Study in Commercial Law, of Study Plan number 25 of the Lawyer's
career, seeks to link the Learning Units of a commercial and commercial procedural nature, being a
Disciplinary Case Study in the Special Commercial Trial, The FICREA SA de CV, SFP case is projected as an
auxiliary credit organization.
a) Facts.
b) Identification of the problem.
c) Identification of applicable legislation.
d) Development of the problem and its different scenarios.
The teaching and learning strategies focus on four essential aspects, which are open research, orality,
collaborative work and the use of diversified information and communication technologies.
There are three axes that are provided as spaces for educational and professional development of the
student, the social commitment to the most vulnerable sector, which is the savers of auxiliary credit societies,

is reflected in the financial literacy workshop; with the private sector by providing legal advice on commercial
matters and towards the government or administrative sector as a legal researcher of the trends in
Commercial Law by presenting a proposal or reflection article on a case in particular with repercussions on
commercial legal events.

Planning, seen as the action of developing strategies that allow students to achieve meaningful learning, is
presented by emphasizing the three moments of iteration: reading, deliberation and conclusion; The teacher is
suggested to make adjustments that are appropriate for their groups. Regarding the initial framing session, it is
emphasized that the teacher must consider having options for credit institutions so that the students can carry
out the advice that is proposed within the case study. A digital file is provided in Excel format for consultation and
manipulation.

DELIVERABLE 1
SHEET E1
Purpose of the deliverable That the student documents in the deliverable the new information and knowledge of
the facts of the case, both from reference documents and those generated from the
deliberation with his classmates, with the purpose of delving into the approach to the
case. This documentation sheet is also intended to demonstrate progress in research
capacity, selection of sources, analysis of information and synthesis; the latter through
the elaboration of conclusions in each iteration.
General considerations:
It is essential that the teacher checks, in each revision of the documentation sheet, that
in each iteration that is closed, the student performs the conclusion exercise. It is not a
summary of the investigation of the iteration, not a comment, but a CONCLUSION OF
THE CASE as a SYNTHESIS with the information accumulated so far. The conclusions
in each iteration allow us to observe the progress in the process and, therefore, it is also
a diagnostic document to make stimulating and relevant observations to the students.
The weighting of this E1 is 10% of the course and is reviewed in its final delivery
according to the corresponding rubric. However, during the course the delivery of
documentation should be considered a requirement to advance, in addition to the fact
that the professor will insist that the documentation is necessary to complete the other
deliverables.
Introduction The new knowledge that the student acquires within the development of the case allows
him to know from different sources and positions the real facts of the situation that
generates legal relationships. Therefore, gradual documentation of knowledge is
necessary, which allows analysis and reflection based on the documentation carried
out.
UNIVERSITY OF GUADALAJARA
Commercial Law Disciplinary Case Study
Advance instructions E1-1
Individual investigation of the case, it is requested that at least a review of 15 sources
be carried out, including indexed journals and sources in another language; The
documentation sheet is intended to record the relevant ideas and other research data
for the first time when learning about the case and after deliberation in class as a
conclusion.
E1-2
It must contain information on the subjects involved, creditors, debtors, authorities,
media, etc.
E1-3
Consider the participation of the financial authorities in the case, only in a general way
without assertions, only what the law dictates.
E1-5
Students must investigate financial crimes.
E1-6
Investigation and documentation of solutions to the case; It may be that some students
study different areas of commercial law, this is due to the specialization that the same
student has already defined in their professional training (example: criminal,
commercial, labor, tax, administrative, etc.).
E1-7
The intention is to document the international trends of similar situations in financial
matters, with the intention of documenting possible solutions and/or reform needs to the
legal framework of the Mexican Financial System.
