This paper addresses the relevance and novelty of the criteria generated by the execution of this study from a theoretical and legal framework. The content, dimensions and essential core of the right to a healthy environment, the principles that govern it, and the effective protection on the configuration of the legitimate interests in environmental matters are highlighted. Its connection with environmental services, as well as the obligations of the judges regarding its interpretation are further studied herein. Also noteworthy, is the consideration of the protection of mangroves as a national priority, the reinterpretation of the principle of relativity of Amparo Judgements and the judicial tools for the reversal of the burden of proof or to collect them ex officio. Likewise, it presents, based on the background and data of the case, a critical analysis of the limitations of the amparo for the effective protection of the environment.
