Accountability for gun violence: What’s next in Mexico’s case against U.S. Gun manufacturers?
In January, a federal appeals panel in Massachusetts ruled that a civil lawsuit filed by Mexico against U.S. gun manufacturers for aiding and abetting illegal sales could proceed, reversing a lower court that had dismissed the case. This timely event will explore the recent decision in Massachusetts as well as developments in the upcoming Arizona case. Fadia Ibrahim will introduce the litigation from the perspective of the Mexican government, both in terms of the harm in Mexico and the legal issues. Carlos Pérez Ricart will outline the stakes of the lawsuits from the security perspective in Mexico and the United States. Jonathan Lowy will discuss the Circuit Court’s decision and outline next steps, including the implications that discovery might provide for additional legal avenues in the United States. León Castellanos-Jankiewicz will moderate and add perspectives from international and European law.
