The Caribbean Court of Justice (CCJ) dismissed an application by Maya leaders seeking clarity on a 2015 consent order regarding Maya customary land rights. The court ruled that the process it ordered is already underway and should be allowed to continue. The review panel, tasked with resolving outstanding issues including the identification of customary lands, remains divided. Maya leaders argue that the government is not acting in good faith and has refused to support their CCJ application. They also criticized the government's proposed approach to recognizing Maya customary land tenure, which they claim is based on imagination rather than established Maya land use. The Maya Leaders Alliance (MLA) has called on Toledo representatives to publicly state their position on Maya land rights legislation.
