- Court of First Instance
- Case number
- HCAL18/2007
The application was refused because the court has no jurisdiction to direct the Secretary for Justice to use his best endeavours to obtain an embargo from foreign (Italian) authorities, the issue of embargo is governed by Italian law and courts, and issuing such a direction risks breaching comity and cannot be effectively policed by this court.
