So when was the first translation of the Amaral book available?

[Montclair]

How do you know that as a fact? By being on the internet, it could have been on a private site to which you had no access. This is however not particularly likely, I admit.

Alternatively MW could have got the date wrong, or you could have misheard August 2008 for August 2009 when there clearly was a translation on the internet.

Perhaps you could check the date when next at court?

It could not have been August 2009 because the McCanns had obtained the injunction on the book in September 2009 after having failed their first two attempts when judges refused to take the case. Therefore, they would have had to make the decision to sue long before August 2009 because something like this takes a long time to prepare. Also, they had trouble finding a lawyer to take their case in Portugal. No doubt that he said August 2008.

Actually a summary and some extracts were published on Internet in Summer 2008, but I don't think there was a complete translation before June 2009, when they required the providência cautelar.

Exactly and issued the writ months earlier

In which case could it have been a reference to this summary version with extracts by Claudia Proud of the PJ?

That was certainly online in August 2008.

You are possibly right and injunction provoked the translation being put online in full.

I have posted above the likely source which MW was referring to, that which you also referred in this post.

Yes the extracts appear on McCann Files and Proud of the PJ blog

Both extracts also conclude with this.

Ridiculous to assume any injunction  had any power over the internet LoooooL

[Redblossom]

there was nothng *slurred about my post* and nothing ambiguous I clearly said you may be right or wrong

oh and I dont do  hearsay dear

Here is the evidence your heros lied, copy and paste of a recent post of mine

What about what the Mccanns were reporting vis a vis the libel action?


From a SIC interview given 12 May 2009

Q There's also been Gonçalo Amaral's book and at the time there was a lot of talk about possible legal charges bought up by you against Gonçalo Amaral. Are you still considering these legal charges against him?
 
Gerry McCann: We certainly haven't ruled it out. The reason we haven't done it to date is we didn't want to create... and I think there's been enough Anglo-Portuguese angst, particularly in the media and we certainly, errr... didn't want to exacerbate that but, you know, he clearly is getting, errr... more outrageous and we certainly wouldn't rule it out.
 
Kate McCann: At the same time, you know, it... it's a distraction, you know, what Mr Amaral is doing. I mean, it's... it's damaging to our search, errm... but at the same time, you know, we want to find Madeleine. We want to move forward and get new information and we don't want to be derailed by negative people who have their own agendas, you know, so...
 
Gerry McCann: That is... I mean, that's a very good point, you know; we don't want to look back, we are trying to do things, but it gets to the point, errr... where you just think: 'enough's enough'.

So how is Kate Mccann writing in her book Madeleine that conversations with their lawyer had been ongoing since November 2008, Gerry made a trip in January 2009 to see the lawyer about suing Amaral and by April 20 2009 they made the decision to sue!

Why was Gerry Mccann keeping the decision/legal action a secret?

Once again you have misread. There is nothing in my post suggesting the injunction had power over the internet.

I correctly stated that the injunction may have provoked the publication of the translation on the internet. And I stand by that. Because anti McCanns believed that following the injunction there was less likelihood of the UK public after the injunction ever being able to read the book in English they decided to post it on the Internet. One provoked the other.

The problem is there was no translation of the book on Internet in August 2008...

But your friend, Joana translated it Anne!
