Abstract

Abstract: This research focuses on analyzing the ruling in the case of Cortez Espinoza vs. Ecuador, issued by the Inter-American Court of Human Rights, in relation to Sustainable Development Goal #16 (SDG 16), which aims to promote just, peaceful, and inclusive societies. The main objective of this study is to examine this ruling in detail to understand its legal implications, human rights aspects, and justice at both national and international levels. This study highlights the specific ruling that addresses issues related to the right to a fair trial within a reasonable time, based on the norms and principles established by the American Convention on Human Rights. It is argued that the fundamental rights of Jorge Cortez Espinoza were violated concerning effective judicial protection and due process, according to the relevant articles of the Convention. This ruling emphasizes the importance of guaranteeing individual rights within the Ecuadorian judicial system and the need to adhere to international human rights standards. The research delves into how judicial decisions, such as the mentioned case, have significant implications for the respect, protection, and realization of human rights at both national and international levels.
