United States Ordered to Stop Executions in Mexican Cases by International Court of Justice

The International Court of Justice today ordered the United States to stop executions of several Mexican nationals who are covered by a 2004 judgment of the Court. Frustrated at the failure of the United States to implement the 2004 judgment, Mexico filed a new application before the Court several weeks ago requesting that it interpret the earlier judgment.
