In the case of being detained, how is the guardianship of the children assigned?

If, during the detention process, a Mexican citizen has access to a notary, he/she can grant temporary guardianship through him to the person he/she designates, if he does not have access, a family member can apply for guardianship, proving the kinship relationship.

It is important to note that when the child is in the custody of the State, a judge can determine whether the power of attorney over the child's guardianship is valid or not.
