In 2009, Alfredo Corchado of The Dallas Morning News called it the thirdmost important Mexican consulate after Los Angeles and Chicago's, in terms of activity and Mexican population size.[1] It moved from 8855 North Stemmons Freeway to 1210 River Bend Drive that January.[2]
On May 6, 2009, lawyers for four residents filed a class action lawsuit in the Dallas County District Court, partially alleging "corruption and greed" in the consulate.[3] That August, the Mexican government announced the removal of consul-general Enrique Hubbard Urrea from his post due to corruption.[4][1]
