McCanns appeal to the European Court of Human Rights

[jassi]

If one went only on precedent  of past cases, there would be no need for anything to be considered by judges.

Same as barrier.. A sniping post with nothing to add to thee discussion.  For someone who claims you are not interested in my opinion you ate paying a lot of attention to it.. Lol

Its a new year but same old, you hold your opinion in such high esteem anyone who disagrees is seen to be sniping.

You claim to have read so much about previous cases and how they in your opinion will impact on the McCann/Healey V Portugal case and then have an impact on Amaral should the judges rule against Portugal.

How many of these case's involved an as yet unsolved missing child case and a detective who successfully went through the appeal courts of Portugal ( substitute the country of choice) ?

Thsts, what the, ECHR has said.. Basically the judgement in thee McCanns case has already been decided based on previous judgements... Level 3

Have you a cite for that ?

[G-Unit]

My reality is what the ECHR clearly state and the results of past cases.  That seems logical to me.. I suspect yours is dogs don't lie

Your opinion is based on your understanding of what the ECHR state and of the issues raised in past cases. Your understanding differs from mine.

[Mr Gray]

Yes

The ECHR has already designated the case as level 3...covered by existing case law

Give an example of any impact on an  individual after the ECHR ruled against a country ?

Low importance.

[Admin]

Low importance.

Nothing the ECHR can say will have any consequences on the Madeleine case in my view. The McCanns lost their case very publicly in Portugal and when they attempted to claim that they had been cleared, the Portuguese Supreme Court issued a swift rebuke by way of a clarification to state otherwise.

[jassi]

I get the impression that countries can pretty much ignore rulings that go against them so even if McCann wins it will be of little consequence to Portugal.

The SC never said they had not been cleared. I think you will find the SC will be heavily criticised in my view.  It has a very poor recirdvat the ECHR.
It obviously won't affect thevcade which imo has been solved by the Germans
The mist interesting point is that it has been shown that a favourable verdict could lead to the libel case being reopened in Portugal

For clarity the SC in 2017 said the mccanns were not clesred by the archiving despatch in 2008. They didn't say they had not been cleared.  I think it's quite obvious the despatch was evidence if innocence which the SC refused to accept

That may well not be true... Again based on facts

It would be a moral victory for the McCanns and that would be enough.
