Not on P.ie though.

Just to point out that Anthony Coughlan is an avid no supporter so all he say about lisbon should be taken with a pinch of salt!!!
Making the Charter legally binding does not put anything under EU jurisdiction which was not under EU jurisdiction before the charter was brought in.The Charter of Fundamental rights include the right to a fair trial. Making the Charter legally binding puts judicial practices under EU jurisdiction and opens up for potential harmonization - putting the tradition of trial-by-jury at risk.

Why.Originally Posted by Clanrickard
Surely it is inevitable that the ECJ, which will become the dominant legal player in the new EU union,is going to publish a finding obiter dicta that decisions of non jury courts carry a greater legal weight.
I believe this because the majority of current EU court decisions are not decided on by juries but in non jury courts.
Jury decisions will be relegated to the back burner and will eventually by seen as non binding and hence legally void.
troll alert
While Anthony Coughlan has opposed the EU project from its beginning he is also one of the most factual people in the world. Anything political should be taken with a pinch of salt.

Anthomy Coughlan sent around a leaflet telling us that Lisbon would make us EU citizens for the first time - a blatant lie.
(There were other lies there too but the citizenship one is the one that has been annoying me the most lately).

On what basis would they do this? Also Obiter Dictum is an opinion of the court and non-binding.

WARNING, the above post is a lie. ALL EU countries have a trial by jury system.
In fact Ireland has just introduced a new criminal bill which will deny certain suspects a trial by Jury already which had nothing to do with Lisbon.
In fact some barristeres are saying that if a suspect who is denied a jury due to this Irish bill, they would have a good chance of getting a jury if they brought their case to the Euopean courts.
PLEASE DONT BELIEVE THIS POSTER.
AGAIN, ALL EU COUNTRIES HAVE A TRIAL BY JURY SYSTEM. THIS POSTER IS TELLING FIBS TO GET YOU TO VOTE NO.
True, but obiter dictum carries weight and very often ends up being case law
and hence binding.
