ORELLANA RAMIREZ, María Inés. Equal civil marriage as a way of secure the equal right and non discrimination. Foro [online]. 2019, n.32, pp.103-121. ISSN 2631-2484.  https://doi.org/10.32719/26312484.2019.32.6.

A homosexual couple based on Advisory Opinion OC-24/17, want to celebrate between them civil marriage. Petition denied due to several reasons, as such, they present a protection action. In first instance the demand is accepted, while the superior judge not accept the petition. This is where we must consider whether or not the right to equality and non-discrimination is violated and not only of the petitioners but in general to people with a different sexual orientation, a category protected by the current Ecuadorian Constitution. In addition to determining if the aforementioned international instrument is part of the constitutionality block since, if it were affirmative, it would be part of the current legislation and, therefore, of mandatory compliance.

Doing an analysis if in reality the right of equality and non discrimination is being fullfilled in reason of sexual orientation.
