Gunches filed a motion urging the Arizona Supreme Court to expedite his execution, claiming his death sentence is "long overdue" and accusing the state of delay.
The Arizona Supreme Court rejected Gunches' request to skip legal formalities for his execution, stating they wish to hear arguments from all involved parties.
Abolitionists are likely to view the Court's decision as a positive step, highlighting the complex moral and legal questions surrounding voluntary execution.
Despite Gunches' insistence on proceeding with his execution, Arizona must address whether it can carry out such a sentence constitutionally and legally.
