Iturbide dissolved the Congress on 31 October 1822 due to rejected proposals regarding executive powers.
The dissolution followed the rejection of Iturbide's proposals concerning Supreme Court appointments, veto rights, and military tribunals. These conflicts alienated conservatives and led to the Emperor's decision to close the legislative body.
