Resumen
ARROCHA OLABUENAGA, Pablo A.. Caso Medellín vs. Texas. Comentarios al fallo de la Suprema Corte de los Estados Unidos, así como a la solicitud de interpretación del fallo Avena del 31 de marzo de 2004, presentada a la Corte Internacional de Justicia por México en junio de 2008. Anu. Mex. Der. Inter [online]. 2009, vol.9, pp.677-705. ISSN 1870-4654.
This essay analyzes from a critical point of view the judgment of the United States Supreme Court in the case Medellín vs. Texas, rendered on 25 June 2008, in which the Court decides that neither the Avena judgment of the International Court of Justice, nor the memorandum issued by President George W. Bush, constitute federal laws, reason for which the obligations contained in said documents are not binding nor enforceable in United States' local courts. It also addresses the actions of Mexico following this judgment, before the International Court of Justice.
