Emilio Blanco Montero (individual) v. Embajada de Guinea Ecuatorial (State)
Author(ity)
Constitutional Court
Date of the decision, of the judgment
10/02/1997
Points of law
The Constitutional Court establishes that the judges should exhaust the possible ways of execution of a judgment against a foreign State.Summary of the case
The Constitutional Court defines once again the fundamental right to a fair hearing and the right to enforce judicial judgments. The enforcement, says the Court, is an integral part of the fundamental right provided for in article 24 of the Constitution – any other interpretation would devoid the law of its efficacy and would transform it into a mere declaration of intentions. The Constitutional Court declares that the tribunals did not exhaust the possible ways of execution available, such as credits, aid or subsidies granted to the foreign state.Sources
