Central Electoral Board (JCE) president Julio Cesar Castanos Guzman announced that the window of opportunity to take any legal action to annul Haitian immigrant civil rights activist Sonia Pierre's Dominican nationality has passed. Castanos Guzman continued by saying that though the JCE judges plan on discussing Pierre's case no timetable has been set for those discussions. Castanos Guzman added that the JCE has to be careful with the Pierre case but also added that the JCE can discuss the case and recommend a decision but has no legal recourse beyond that.
