We would say team McCann at work again ...Lorraine,<br /><br />We would say team McCann at work again in trying to have things shut down. <br /><br />The problem they now also have is that there is a pending LOR in Portugal. That alone makes it awkward, to say the least, to shut something down with something waiting for an answer from another country.<br /><br />Maybe this LOR is the key that unlocks this particular Pandoras' Box finally? If it is, as we think it is, about forensics (the one announced last October) then we would say that yes, it would be that key.Textusahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06160632687242190030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6891574965172458848.post-21035365757130669862015-09-09T14:27:28.430+01:002015-09-09T14:27:28.430+01:00I so wish Kerry would tell the press to naff off t...I so wish Kerry would tell the press to naff off they only ever use her for McCann stuff<br />Yes it highlights Ben again but it's looked past in favour of discussion on McCann funding <br />Are they getting ready to shut down or is this team McCann at work again?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09860766080102193055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6891574965172458848.post-81050589282998729772015-09-09T10:09:22.924+01:002015-09-09T10:09:22.924+01:00Yes, shame on them.

But I don’t understand why the investigation has received so much – £11m is unprecedented.<br /><br />"It seems unfair when other missing children aren’t getting as much attention."<br /><br />Little Ben vanished in 1991 outside a farmhouse his grandparents were renovating on the island of Kos, while his mum was at work.<br /><br />His family searched the area for the toddler, aged 20 months, but he was never found.<br /><br />Kerry says she has pleaded with the Government for more help in finding her boy.<br /><br />She said: "I’ve come up against so much resistance from the Home Office when I've asked for help finding Ben.<br /><br />"Kate and Gerry will never want to give up searching for Maddie, but there have been no arrests and there don’t seem to be any leads.<br /><br />"It seems the police have done all they can - which isn’t the case with Ben.<br /><br />"There is still hope for Ben.

In this appeal, among other arguments, there was the request to annul the 1st Instance Court decision at the end of April. Not any other decision.<br /><br />The Appeal Court accepted the appeal and has rejected the request to annul the 1st Instance Court decision at the end of April. Not any other request, not any other decision.<br /><br />This means 1st Instance Court decision at the end of April was not annulled. It stands as it was at the end of April.<br /><br />We repeat, the non-suspension of sentence means ONLY that 1st Instance Court decision at the end of April stands as when it was pronounced. That’s it. That simple.<br /><br />Did Mr Amaral have to pay anything at the end of April? No. That means he hasn’t to pay anything now.<br /><br />Were the books seized at the end of April? No. That means they aren’t to be seized now.<br /><br />Today as we write this, Mr Amaral’s assets remain frozen, the book can continue to be sold and Mr Amaral hasn’t to pay a single cent to the McCanns. Just like when the 1st Instance Court decision at the end of April was pronounced.<br /><br />Only when the last appeal is exhausted (decision of Supreme Court) will the whichever sentence either be enforced, altered or revoked because only then will it have been “transitado em julgado” (literal translation: gone through the traffic of judgement).<br /><br />We wish people would stop feeding people who only seek disruption and morale breaking.Textusahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06160632687242190030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6891574965172458848.post-57963046565586283382015-09-08T13:17:32.155+01:002015-09-08T13:17:32.155+01:00" journalists who swear this was something st..." journalists who swear this was something staged for the media" was Goncalo Amaral not talking about the digging up on PdL in 2014 when he said thisAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6891574965172458848.post-34238300363495797202015-09-08T07:23:41.523+01:002015-09-08T07:23:41.523+01:00How many journalists were present in PdL in 2007, ...How many journalists were present in PdL in 2007, yet didn't notice or neglected to report the fact that the shutters weren't jemmied?

Very nicely obser...Anonymous 5 Sep 2015, 15:16:00.<br /><br />Very nicely observed!<br /><br />About the particular issue of the special account v fraudulent fund, 2 questions arise immediately:<br /><br />- What is the fund for after all? If it is to fund the searching for Maddie (among other objectives) then we cannot see the need create a special fund to search for Maddie.<br /><br />- Where is reflected in the fraudulent fund these withdrawals? If “they have kept some money back from the Find Madeleine Fund” then these movements of money must be shown somewhere to be verified.<br /><br />About what you have implied. Yes, it’s quite clear that a hostility against the McCanns is being created, even by the articles supposedly in their support.<br /><br />For us it’s like someone is preparing the town square for a lynching. We have added this to list of things that make us believe something is afoot and coming.<br /><br />We just hope that the Appeal Court does not play a prank like the 1st Instance Court did and comes to a sensible and logical decision. Otherwise we might be forced to witness seeing the McCanns appealing to the Supreme Court a decision favourable to them. <br /><br />No one, but no one, wants to see the Mr Amaral lose his appeal. If he does, then it will cause a legal mayhem when the couple is to be put on the cart and wheeled off towards the mob waiting inflamed for them at the town square. <br /><br />We say legal mayhem because no legal decision on UK has any effect on one in Portugal. Even if the McCanns are charged and sentenced on live TV in the UK for all the world to see, that wouldn’t affect in any way a possible unfavourable sentence to Mr Amaral in Portugal. <br /><br />Nor can the Portuguese judicial system then say, “we change our minds because the British were able to see the couple’s guilt and we couldn’t”<br /><br />It would be McCanns saints in Portugal and demons in Britain. What endless embarrassment that would be for both countries.<br /><br />Lastly about Clarence Mitchell being quoted. As we hope you know, we consider Mitchell’s importance in this case to be very little. He has simply, in our opinion, given a voice to a script, a character to a script and a name to be used by whomever really decides.<br /><br />In our opinion, in this case many have been quoted without ever uttering a word. People who open up the paper the tabloids are printed on and read themselves having said things that they themselves didn’t hear them say.<br /><br />They read what they have said and could easily come back and say “I didn’t say that”. But won’t. They’re either not fools or they know that’s a price to be paid to climb that ladder they have sold their souls to be able to climb it.<br /><br />About those who are not fools to show their heads, to say that what appears to have been said by them was effectively said by them is quite ridiculous. In our opinion, of course.Textusahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06160632687242190030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6891574965172458848.post-73607734997068628742015-09-05T15:16:50.277+01:002015-09-05T15:16:50.277+01:00http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/madeleine-mcc...http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/madeleine-mccanns-parents-ready-continue-6370581<br /><br />Concerning the above article, wit reference especially to: <br /> 'He told how former GP Kate and heart doctor Gerry, both 37, of Rothley, Leics, had moved money from the publicly-backed Find Maddie Fund into a special account in anticipation of having to finance the hunt for their daughter themselves.

You are right but...Anonymous 5 Sep 2015, 12:32:00,<br /><br />You are right but what you say is not linked with what we wrote above. Above is limited to the process that the appeal to the Appeal Court involves. Only to that, nothing else.<br /><br />Look at it in stages. Stage 1 was 1st Instance Court. This stage ended with a decision unfavourable to Mr Amaral.<br /><br />He didn't agree with it so he has appealed to the Appeal Court. When he submitted the appeal he started Stage 2. The stage we are at. At the end of it there will be a decision. It will either uphold the 1st Instance Court, overturn that decision or come to some sort of "solution" in between the 2.<br /><br />Whatever decision, either party (McCanns or Mr Amaral) have the right to appeal to the Supreme Court. That will be Stage 3.<br /><br />Whatever the Supreme Court decides cannot be appealed nationally. Which means that it will have been "transitado em julgado", meaning that it's a final decision and it has to be executed.<br /><br />But, please be aware that Stage 3 only takes place IF one or both parties appeal AND the Supreme Court accepts the appeal.Textusahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06160632687242190030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6891574965172458848.post-52920906033570774272015-09-05T12:32:29.308+01:002015-09-05T12:32:29.308+01:00Textusa 10.45.

The judge decided the appeal was valid and the verdict of the first instance court is appealable. <br /><br />In other words and very simple: There are no null aspects regarding the verdict, hence it was not suspended or made null. The verdict is appealable and that is the decision of the judge. The verdict was sent to the appeals court for their decision."Textusahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06160632687242190030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6891574965172458848.post-51294338243314576422015-09-05T10:19:33.421+01:002015-09-05T10:19:33.421+01:00Concerning Mr Amaral’s appeal, there seems to be a...Concerning Mr Amaral’s appeal, there seems to be a confusion generated by the translation of the following phrase: “O recurso é de apelação (artº 645 alínea a), sobe nos próprios autos (artº645º) e com efeito meramente devolutivo (artº 647º nº1)”<br /><br />Isabel Oliveira translated it as follows: “The “request “ is of appeal (Article 645, Section a) ), and will be elevated in the next proceedings with a mere non suspensive effect (Article 647, n 1).”<br /><br />Anne Guedes as: “The appeal request (Article 645-a) concerns the proceedings with a merely devolutive effect (Article 647-1). [“Devolutive” means that the proceedings (facts and law) will be examined by the higher Court but without a suspensive effect on the execution of the judgement.]<br /><br />The nº1 of artº 647 of the CPC, says the following in Portuguese “se a questão da nulidade da sentença ou da sua reforma for suscitada no âmbito de recurso dela interposto, compete ao juiz apreciá-la no próprio despacho em que se pronuncia sobre a admissibilidade do recurso, não cabendo recurso da decisão de indeferimento.”<br /><br />This translates to “if the annulment of sentence or its reform [need to be redone in any way] is raised within its appeal, it is up to the judge to appreciate it [pronounce judgment] in the dispatch about the admissibility of appeal, having no place for an appeal to a decision denying it [the request of annulment]”<br /><br />This article is clearly about the request of annulment of sentence and nothing else. Mr Amaral’s legal team requested within the appeal that sentence be annulled. The judge who received the appeal HAD to decide on whether this was so or not. He HAD to write his decision on the dispatch saying whether the appeal was accepted or not.<br /><br />That is what the law states, on the act of analysing if appeal is to be accepted or not, IF in it is a request of annulment of sentence, then the decision about this particular must be made at this stage.<br /><br />The logic is easy to understand. If there are grounds to annul a sentence then why go through the trouble of analysing any other arguments that are based on its validity? The law says, first analyse if the sentence should first exist, then if it should, send arguments for analysis and decision to the appropriate judges.<br /><br />Besides, it’s a common principle of law that an appeal puts a stop to any execution of a sentence. An appeal is a party saying that a sentence is wrong, wholly or partly. If the process is not concluded, and one of the parts is stating the sentence is wrong, what legal system could execute a sentence on those terms?<br /><br />To clarify, the sentence of the 1st Instance Court continues valid and the arguments presented by the defendant to contest its content have been accepted and will be analysed and decided upon within the Appeal Court.<br /><br />The book is not to be taken off the shelf nor has Mr Amaral to pay a single cent at this stage.<br /><br />The execution of a sentence in Portugal only happens after it as “transitado em julgado” [literal translation: has gone through the traffic of judgment]. This only happens when there are no more appeals to be made.<br /><br />Hope this clarifies.Textusahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06160632687242190030noreply@blogger.com
