European Court Rules on Right to Fair Trial in Greece
The Coordination Committee of the Presidents of Bar Associations in Greece has responded to a recent European Court of Human Rights ruling that found the Council of State violated an applicant’s right to a fair trial. The committee emphasized that justice should be expedited through timely decisions rather than excessive formalities that restrict litigants’ rights. They call on the Supreme Court’s President to reconsider the implications of this ruling and to effectively address the real issues within the judicial system, ensuring the rule of law is preserved.
