| Summary | An individual requested the recognition of the decision which granted a divorce on 19 December 2007, by the Family Court of Holland. The Corte Suprema de Justicia denied recognition of the decision. It considered that no Treaty existing between Colombia and the Netherlands established reciprocity for the recognition and enforcement of decisions. The Corte Suprema de Justicia noted that the NYC did not apply to the recognition and enforcement of a decision in family matters. |
