    Separate & Unequal: An Intro to U.S. Territorial Governance

    Current Judicial Developments in the Relationship Between the United States, Puerto Rico & Other Territories is a three-part series of events sponsored by the University of Connecticut Puerto Rican Studies Initiative, El Instituto, and the University of Connecticut School of Law Latino Law Students Association and the Human Rights Law Association.

    Gustavo A. Gelpí is a judge on the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit, which has appellate jurisdiction over cases from the Districts of Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Maine and Puerto Rico.

    As a U.S. District Judge, Gelpí presided over United States v. Vaello Madero. Therein, he held that the Equal Protection rights of US citizens in Puerto Rico were violated by Congress not extending SSI benefits by virtue of residence in a territory. On appeal, the First Circuit affirmed, however the Supreme Court subsequently reversed.

    Judge Gelpí teaches at law schools in Puerto Rico and Hawai’i a seminar on U.S. Territories, and has lectured on territorial issues across the Nation, as well as in Puerto Rico, Guam, the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, U.S. Virgin Islands and Panama (formerly the U.S. Canal Zone).
