Overview
- The Constitutional Court said it is not yet competent to hear the complaint and told the parties to exhaust lower-court remedies first.
- The dispute arises from a suit by Josef Abrham jr. against Saxony’s State Palaces Administration over exhibits tied to his late mother, actress Libuse Safrankova.
- Abrham alleges Moritzburg Castle shows her photos and personal and work items without consent, which he argues violates her personality rights.
- Earlier in the case, the Czech Supreme Court in Brno found German courts competent and sent the matter back to a Prague district court.
- No final ruling has been made, which leaves future Moritzburg exhibitions uncertain and could shape how museums handle items linked to deceased public figures across borders.
