  • Case of Maya Indigenous Communities of Belize, Inter-Am
    REPORT Nº 96/03 CASE 12.053 MAYA INDIGENOUS COMMUNITIES OF THE TOLEDO DISTRICT BELIZE October 24, 2003 I. SUMMARY 1. This report concerns a petition presented to the Inter-American Commission of Human Rights (the "Commission”) against the State of Belize (the "State" or “Belize”) on August 7, 1998 by the Indian Law Resource Center and the Toledo Maya Cultural Council (the “Petitioners”). The petition claims that the State is responsible for violating rights under the American Declaration of the Rights and Duties of Man (the “American Declaration”) that the Mopan and Ke’kchi Maya People of the Toledo District of Southern Belize (the “Maya people of the Toledo District” or the “Maya people”) are alleged to have over certain lands and natural resources.1 2. The Petitioners claim that the State has violated Articles I, II, III, VI, XI, XVIII, XX and XXIII of the American Declaration in respect of lands traditionally used and occupied by the Maya people, by granting logging and oil concessions in and otherwise failing to adequately protect those lands, failing to recognize and secure the territorial rights of the Maya people in those lands, and failing to afford the Maya people judicial protection of their rights and interests in the lands due to delays in court proceedings instituted by them. According to the Petitioners, the State’s contraventions have impacted negatively on the natural environment upon which the Maya people depend for subsistence, have jeopardized the Maya people and their culture, and threaten to cause further damage in the future. 3. The State has indicated before the Commission that applicable law and the facts presented by the Petitioners are unclear as to whether the Maya people may have aboriginal rights in the lands under dispute, although at the same time it has recognized in negotiations outside of the Commission proceedings that the Maya people have rights in lands in the Toledo District based upon their longstanding use and occupancy of that territory.

  • The Institutional Framework of the EAC
    chapter 2 The Institutional Framework of the EAC Wilbert T.K. Kaahwa 2.1 Introduction 2.1.1 Conceptual Background In the law of international organizations such as the United Nations (UN), continental organizations such as the European Union (EU) and the African Union (AU) and regional organizations including the Association of South East Asian Nations (ASEAN), the Common Market for Eastern and Southern Africa (COMESA) and the Southern African Development Community (SADC) the term “institutional framework” often refers to the legal framework that guides the pursuit of such organizations’ objectives. The term can also refer to the sys- tems of formal laws, regulations, and procedures, and informal conventions, customs, and norms that shape socioeconomic activity and behavior. However for the purposes of this book, this Chapter will only highlight the formal orga- nizational set-up established by the Treaty for the Establishment of the East African Community (“the Treaty”). The second part, the legal framework of the EAC, will be discussed in Chapter 3. The importance and relevance of the institutional framework in the East African Community (EAC) can be traced to three facts. Firstly, the EAC has revived an inter-state co-operation system, whose historical antecedents and systematic development between 1967 and 1977 had given rise to an elaborate organizational framework of organs and service commissions. The Treaty for East African Co-operation 1967 had established institutions such as the East African Authority,1 the East African Legislative Assembly,2 Ministers of the Community,3 the Common Market Council,4 the Communications Council,5 the Economic Consultative and Planning Council,6 the Finance Council7 1 Articles 46–48.

    ADDRESS OF THE HON. CHIEF JUSTICE, SIR ISAAC HYATALI, T.C. AT THE OPENING OF THE LAW TERM IN THE HALL OF JUSTICE, RED HOUSE, PORT- OF -SPAIN ON 3 OCTOBER, 1980 Mr. President of the Bar Association et al. We formally begin today the 19th Law Term of the Supreme Court of Trinidad and Tobago. Sittings however of the High Court and the Court of Appeal to dispose of the matters on their respective calendars will not begin until Monday 6 October 1980. FIFTEEN JUDGES For the very first time in its history the High Court then will be manned by 15 judges. Two of them are practising members of the Bar who will be giving up their respective practices for three months certain at no little sacrifice to themselves to serve the Country as Judges. They are Mr. Martin Daly of the Senior Bar and Mr. Trevor Lee of the Junior Bar. MR. JAMES DAVIS Mr. James Davis, a practising member of the Bar, was the first to make such a sacrifice. He joined us in May for three months and at my special request continued for another two months but I regret exceedingly to say that I failed to persuade him to allow me to propose him to the Judicial and Legal Service Commission as an eminently qualified and suitable candidate for permanent judicial office on the High Court Bench. The unattractive salary and conditions of service of a Judge made it impossible for him to give serious consideration to my offer. It is fitting to place on record, and I do so with a sense of gratitude and pleasure that he discharged his judicial duties with ability, dignity and efficiency, and that he did so in response to my appeal to fit and proper and respected members of the Bar to come forward and assist the Supreme Court to discharge its onerous and responsible functions with greater speed and efficiency.

  • Orozco V AG(Belize)
    Human Dignity Trust Belize scraps law targeting gay men 10 August 2016 Small Caribbean state sheds colonial legacy law FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: 10 August 2016 Orozco v Attorney General of Belize (Belize High Court 10 August 2016) Summary: Criminalisation of homosexuality declared unconstitutional. By a judgment handed down on 10 August 2016 the Chief Justice of Belize held that provisions in the Belize Criminal Code purporting to criminalise private consensual sexual conduct between adults of the same sex breached the Constitution of Belize and so should be declared void. In doing so the Chief Justice upheld the claim brought by the Belizean activist Caleb Orozco against the Government of Belize. The Chief Justice held that laws purporting to criminalise private homosexual conduct breached the rights to dignity, privacy, equality and non-discrimination enshrined in the Belize Constitution and so were void. Mr Orozco’s arguments were supported by the Commonwealth Lawyers Association, The Human Dignity Trust and the International Commission of Jurists (the Interveners). The decision of the Chief Justice represented the first occasion on which any Caribbean Court had determined such a constitutional challenge. Press Release: A law in Belize that disproportionately affects gay men was today ruled unconstitutional by the country’s Supreme Court after a three-year wait for the judgment. Section 53 of Belize’s Criminal Code, an old British colonial law, banned ‘carnal intercourse against the order of nature’ and thereby made consensual gay sex between adult men in private illegal in Belize. Today the legal provision has been ruled ‘unlawful’ to the extent that it can be applied to same-sex activity.
