The Judgment on preliminary objections, merits, reparations and costs (hereinafter “the Judgment”) delivered by the Inter-American Court of Human Rights (hereinafter “the Inter-American Court,” “the Court,” or “this Court”) on June 23, 2005. In the foregoing Judgment, it was established that the candidates proposed by the indigenous regional political party, Yapti Tasba Masraka Nanih Asla Takanka (hereinafter “YATAMA”), were excluded from participating in the municipal elections held in 2000 as a result of several decisions issued by the Supreme Electoral Council that were not duly substantiated, nor were they adapted to the parameters set forth in Article 8(1) of the American Convention on Human Rights (hereinafter “the Convention” or “the American Convention”), as well as due to the provisions of the Electoral Act No. 331 of 2000, which established an undue restriction to the exercise of the right to be elected and regulated these provisions in a discriminatory manner.

Consequently, the State was found responsible for the violation of Article 8(1) of the American Convention, in relation to Article 1(1) of that same treaty, as well as Articles 23, 24, and 25(1) of the Convention, in connection with Articles 1(1) and 2 thereof, to the detriment of the aforementioned persons. 2.
