European Hague Convention – Disturbing Ruling

The Grand Chamber of the European Court of Human Rights (the “ECHR”) has issued, just days ago, a major decision that appears to have an extremely significant impact on the interpretation and application of the Hague Abduction Convention within Europe and may well lead to a major split between the way that Convention is interpreted and applied within Europe versus the rest of the world. The case is Neulinger & Shuruk v. Switzerland (Application no. 41615/07).

One Response to European Hague Convention – Disturbing Ruling

  1. blake O'Connor says:

    i am going throught this hague application at the moment, im the father of my son and its just a joke. being the father you are just treated like a criminal, even when all the evidence you provide despute these rediculace claims. The courts need’s to understand that 99.9% of the fathers just want the oppurtunity to spent time with there child or children, there love for that child is as intence and conpashionate as the mother. even thought the mother has carried the child throught the pregnancy, the fathers right next to her the hole way.

    The rulings need to change so that the rulings are not just in the mothers favour all the time. You can understand why the sewerside rate in devorced me is so hi.
