STRENGTHENING ELISABETH’S VOICE…….

From the Gates of Vienna

As reported here earlier this morning, the lower court’s “hate speech” verdict against Elisabeth Sabaditsch-Wolff has been upheld. The judge ruled that the fine should be lowered, however, and sent the case back to a lower court for final adjudication.

ESW at court, 2011-12-20 #2I spoke to Elisabeth on the phone a few minutes ago, and she told me that there is another avenue of appeal within Austria, which she doesn’t entirely understand. She will be consulting with her lawyer on the matter. If that approach fails, she may appeal the verdict to the European Court of Human Rights, although any judgment at the ECHR will have no bearing on the implementation of the sentence in Austria.

Elisabeth’s legal expenses during this process will be considerable, and for that reason we are reactivating the appeal for “Elisabeth’s Voice”. The case should have been over long ago, but the wheels of Austrian “justice” turn slowly. Her supporters on both sides of the Atlantic have been generous, but we must ask them to reach into their pockets once again.
