[IntLawProfessors] Costa Rica Institutes Proceedings againstNicaragua: ICJ - Press Release 2010/38

[Don Anton]

Greetings colleagues,

Just thought I'd flesh this out a bit more.  A few weeks ago many of us will have seen Wired highlight that Nicaragua had stumbled across the Costa Rican border by mistake in reliance on Google Maps: http://www.wired.com/dangerroom/2010/11/google-maps-error-blamed-for-nicaraguan-invasion/.  The case arises, however, because Nicaragua has refused to remove its troops in the weeks since Google accepted the error in its maps.

Kind regards,
DA
