US judge blocks sanctions on two human rights groups

Original: US judge blocks sanctions against 2 human rights groups engaging with international court

A US judge has blocked sanctions imposed on two human rights organizations over their engagement with the International Criminal Court. The ruling prevents the government from enforcing penalties against the groups, which had been targeted for cooperating with the international tribunal. The decision is being reported widely and raises questions about the limits of US sanctions authority over civil society groups working with international courts.

Why now: A federal court ruling limiting US sanctions power over ICC-related advocacy is new and legally significant.
