The Mexican Federal Judiciary is based on a three-tier system similar to the U.S. federal judiciary. The Supreme Court (Supreme Corte de Justicia de la Nacion) has final appellate jurisdiction over all state and federal courts. The circuit courts (Tribunales de Circuito) are the federal appellate courts.

(Mexican) Federal Administration of Justice Authority


Explanation:
Low confidence here because I have not researched this.

The only basis for my answer is that I translate many Swiss French documents from the "Pouvoir Judiciaire" and this is in fact the the Courts and Tribunals administration authority, not the judiciary.

Have just found this Wikipedia definition

Poder Judicial de la Federación (México)


El Poder Judicial de la Federación es uno de los tres poderes de la Unión en los que divide el ejercicio del gobierno en México. Está integrado por la Suprema Corte de Justicia de la Nación, el Tribunal Electoral del Poder Judicial de la Federación, el Consejo de la Judicatura Federal, los Juzgados de Distrito, los Tribunales Colegiados de Circuito y los Tribunales Unitarios de Circuito. Sus fundamentos se encuentran en el Título III, Capítulo IV (abarcando catorce artículos) de la Constitución Política de los Estados Unidos Mexicanos y la Ley Orgánica del Poder Judicial de la Federación. El Jurado Federal de Ciudadanos y los tribunales de los Estados y de la Ciudad de México, pueden actuar en auxilio de la Justicia Federal, en los casos previstos por la Constitución y las leyes.

La administración, vigilancia y disciplina del Poder Judicial de la Federación, con excepción de la Suprema Corte de Justicia y el Tribunal Electoral, está a cargo del Consejo de la Judicatura Federal. En este poder y su conjunto de órganos, se deposita la facultad de impartir justicia en todos los aspectos institucionales del estado mexicano; la aplicación de las normas y principios jurídicos en la resolución de conflictos; y en todos los ámbitos de la aplicación del Derecho y la interpretación de las leyes en la sociedad (civil, penal, constitucional, mercantil, laboral, administrativo, fiscal, procesal, etc.)1​2​3​

Federal Judicial Branch


Explanation:
In the US federal system, while the term “federal judiciary” is used, it is used as a generic term written in lower-case letters, and the system as a whole is called US Courts or Federal Courts (see https://www.uscourts.gov/).

In some state courts you will see, e.g., Texas Judicial Branch https://www.txcourts.gov/, Minnesota Judicial Branch https://www.mncourts.gov/. Notice the use of “judicial,” not “judiciary.”
