Panama’s Supreme Court has ruled against same-sex marriage, saying that it is not a human right, closing the door to establishing the practice through judicial ruling.
"There is a reality, and it is that, until now, the right to equal marriage is no more than an aspiration, even though a legitimate one for the groups involved, and it does not fall into the category of a human right or a fundamental right," said the court, in the ruling dated Feb. 16 but released on Mar. 1.
The case resulted from same-sex couples who were married in other countries seeking to have their unions recognized in Panama.
But the court ruled that "no matter how many changes happen in reality," same-sex marriage "lacks conventional and constitutional recognition," the AFP reported.
The Supreme Court implied with its ruling that the country’s Family Code prioritized unions "capable of establishing families giving continuity to the human species, and therefore, to society," according to Newsroom Panama
