Supreme Court of Japan, Heisei 25 (O) No. 1079 Damages Claim Case

Supreme Court of Japan, Heisei 26 (O) No. 1023 Damages Claim Case

The Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (IACHR) submitted the case Carrión y Otros v. Nicaragua to the Inter-American Court of Human Rights concerning Nicaragua’s international responsibility for failing to properly investigate the death of Carrión. She was in the process of divorce and had custody of her son when she was found dead at home. The medical examiner classified the death as suicide, but her family disputed this, citing her ex-partner’s history of violence.

Law 779, Integral Law Against Violence Towards Women, provides a comprehensive legal framework to prevent, punish, and eradicate violence against women in Nicaragua. It guarantees women the right to live free from violence in both public and private spheres, including protection of their sexual and reproductive integrity.

The Labor Code of Nicaragua guarantees equal treatment and opportunities for workers, prohibiting all forms of discrimination. Fundamental Principle XIII establishes that every worker has the right to equal pay for equal work, without distinction, in recognition of the dignity of the human person. Article 17 reinforces this principle by prohibiting employers from engaging in discriminatory practices that limit or exclude access to employment, including demanding payment or compensation in exchange for a job.

Article 315 of the Nicaraguan Penal Code criminalizes employment discrimination.
