Haiti - Cholera : Haiti's complaint against the UN, in hearing before a the Federal Court in Manhattan 20/10/2014 11:20:24 Following this new complaint, Me Mario Joseph the director of the Bureau of International Lawyers (BAI) and the Institute for Justice and Democracy in Haiti (IJDH) announced that the Federal Court of Manhattan in New York decided to give suite to this complaint and grant a hearing to Haiti on October 23. Me Mario Joseph said he was satisfied and said he expected that the judge in charge of this folder rejects the thesis of absolute immunity of the United Nations noting that the Headquarters Agreement signed July 9, 2004, between the Haitian government and the UN recommends the establishment of a standing committee of claim under paragraph 55, however, Me Joseph stressed that "The time is not for euphoria, because the road ahead is long," recalling that any of the parts (Haiit or UN) may challenge the decision that will result from this hearing.
