    Rechtsprechungsübersicht. Österreichische Rechtsprechung zur Europäischen Menschenrechtskonvention im Jahr 2010
    in Zeitschrift für Offentliches Recht , vol. 66, issue 4 ,  2011 ,  491-561
    ABSTRACT: This is a review of selected decisions passed by Austrian supreme courts in 2010 on the basis of the European Convention on Human Rights. In a first introductory Part I there is a survey of the decisions whereby reference is made not only to the text of the European Convention but also to pertinent Strasbourg case-law. Part II contains short versions of these domestic decisions. As the European Court of Human Rights is overloaded with individual complaints leading to prolonged waiting periods, decentralized jurisdiction by domestic courts is gaining practical importance and interest. This provides one of the reasons for this review. However, it should not be overlooked that the domestic decisions presented here are not always final but may still be subject to scrutiny by the Strasbourg Court.
