Here’s an item posted by Jeremy Morley on his blog discussing a recent ruling of the European Court of Human Rights in a case under the Hague Child Abduction Convention. In Neulinger and Shuruk v. Switzerland, the court reversed a return order, concluding that it violated the child’s rights under Article 8 of the European Convention of Human Rights. Here’s a link to the ECHR press release describing the ruling, and here’s a link to the judgment. As Morley’s blogpost suggests, the judgment seems to point the way to a dramatic shift in the application of the Abduction Convention in Europe that may undermine it quite significantly.
