Court says final 'No' to Jewish restitution claim

The Czech Republic's highest court has confirmed the rejection of a restitution claim by the descendants of a Jewish man who owned a snap button factory that was taken over by the Nazis and then nationalized.
The Constitutional Court confirmed its 2010 verdict, which overturned a 2009 Supreme Court ruling and all previous rulings of lower courts that found in favor of three relatives of Zikmund Waldes, who owned the Koh-i-noor factory in Prague when the Nazis seized it in 1939 during their occupation of what was then Czechoslovakia. The heirs will also not get back a collection of some 20 paintings that were housed in the plant.
The latest verdict sent to The Associated Press by the court on Friday is final. It said the legal complaint by the heirs was "clearly baseless" because it didn't contain any new arguments. |

Spain court rejects torture case extraditions
Law Firm Press Release |
2014/04/30 11:59
|
Spain's National Court has rejected the extradition to Argentina of a second former police officer accused of torturing people during Spain's long dictatorship.
The court turned down the extradition of Spaniard Antonio Gonzalez Pacheco on Wednesday, saying his alleged offences in the 1970s were not crimes against humanity and thus had exceeded the statute of limitations.
The court recently rejected the extradition to Argentina of another former officer, Jesus Munecas, on similar grounds.
An Argentine investigative magistrate had sought their extradition for questioning under the principle of universal jurisdiction.
The judge took up the probe after a Spanish investigation into the dictatorship's crimes was halted in 2012. Spain was ruled by Gen. Francisco Franco from 1939 until his death in 1975. |

High court rejects appeal on sex-offender rules
Legal Blog News |

The California Supreme Court declined to review a lower court's ruling striking down sex-offender restrictions in Orange County that were among the strictest in the state.
Wednesday's move means that local bans in dozens of California communities are trumped by state law and invalidated, as the 4th District Court of Appeal found in January.
"We're obviously disappointed," Susan Kang Schroeder, chief of staff for Orange County's district attorney, told City News Service. "We put our heart and soul in every brief and every argument to protect the children of Orange County from dangerous sex offenders. ... We still believe it was the right thing to do."
Some 30 cities statewide, half of them in Orange County, have passed sex-offender ordinances that the Supreme Court's action effectively invalidates. To revive them, state law would have to be changed to allow for different local restrictions.
Orange County's restrictions passed in 2011 barred offenders from parks and beaches unless they had written permission from the sheriff.
But in 2012, a county court overturned the misdemeanor conviction of a sex offender, Hugo Godinez, for going to a company picnic at a Fountain Valley park and asked the appeals court to rule on the case and the legality of the regulations.
The appeals judges found that the rule conflicts with laws passed by the state that already provide a "comprehensive statutory scheme regulating the daily life of sex offenders." It struck down a similar ordinance in the city of Irvine. |
