The lawyers remember that the whole court procedure “was possible for the transfer of procedural rights” by the inhabitants of San Juan in Vitoria in the Aragon government, which allowed this administration to act on behalf of the private religious order. According to Cassandra, this is the situation “Generates confusion” independently High Court, Since the court disputes where the public administration of the first order, “the procedural key lies in the will of the only natural person associated with a religious entity and thus private”.
In this sense, a group of lawyers think that the transfer of images “to a private ownership monastery, with limited access and uncertain exhibition conditions” means “serious violation” of a collective right of access to art.
If the Constitutional Court does not allow appeal or does not pause the implementation of the punishment, Acció Cassandra is already considering “Internationalization” of the case before The European Court of Human Rights Strasbourg to guarantee effective protection of violated collective rights. “
