The Sinaloa Cartel is credited with dominating the illegal drug market in much of the United States for two decades.
It would block any extradition order for Mexican authorities to extradite Guzman to the United States.
His only hope now is to avoid extradition to the United States.
But even if the court accepts the petition, Guzmán’s lawyers have said they will appeal to the country’s Supreme Court to prevent the man who once headed the world’s largest drugs cartel from leaving the country.
Once he was recaptured, Mexican president Enrique Peña Nieto made it clear he would cooperate fully with the United States.
