will a ruling be made with regard to compliance with the latter.” The Court takes note of the
decision on the application for amparo filed by Mr. Castañeda Gutman, as well as of the filing
of an appeal for review against it, which will be decided by the Supreme Court. However, this
Court finds that the said domestic decision does not affect the considerations of the Court in
this Order on the status of compliance with the Judgment, taking into account the current
status of this case.
THEREFORE:
THE INTER-AMERICAN COURT OF HUMAN RIGHTS,
in exercise of its authority to monitor compliance with its decision, pursuant to Articles 33,
62(1), 62(3), and 68(1) of the American Convention on Human Rights, 24 and 30 of its
Statute, and 31(2) and 69 of its Rules of Procedure,
DECIDES:
1.
As indicated in considering paragraphs 15 to 27 of this Order, that the State has
complied fully with its obligation to guarantee to its citizens the right to question the
constitutionality of the legal regulation of the right to be elected, as established in the sixth
operative paragraph of the Judgment.
2.
To close the case of Castañeda Gutman, given that Mexico has complied with the
provisions of the Judgment handed down by the Inter-American Court of Human Rights on
August 6, 2008.
3.
To communicate this Order to the General Assembly of the Organization of American
States in the 2013 Annual Report of the Inter-American Court of Human Rights.
4.
To require the Secretariat of the Court to notify this order to Mexico, the InterAmerican Commission and the representatives of the victim.
5.
To close the file of this case.
