Posted Monday, July 16, 2007     December 20, 2006: After 400 days in solitary confinement David Irving is brought to the appeal court in Vienna where Judges order his immediate release.   Below: David Irving now, July 2007 David Irving's imprisonment in Austria The Vienna, Austria, appeal must go forward: in London we are also preparing an appeal to the UN Court of Human Rights, but both actions may be choked off by shortage of funds. (Since his successful appeal against political imprisonment in December 2006, Mr Irving has been home hunting for his family - the old one was lost during his 400 days of solitary confinement in Vienna. He calculates the on-going losses inflicted on him by the wilful arrest by Austria's political police at over $400,000: airline tickets, lost contracts, possessions, fees, lawyers and the rest). This is an urgent appeal for funds, to sustain both Mr Irving's fight and the major appeals ahead, and to meet costs already incurred by his successful Vienna team, the heroic Dr Herbert Schaller and his daughter Elisabeth. She writes on July 11 [click for German text] Today we received delivery of the decision on our appeal against the expulsion order. The appeal has been rejected with extensively stated reasons (the enormous knowledge of history displayed by our civil servants is of course what matters). I will send you a copy as soon as you email or fax a current mailing address to me. Any appeal against this second-level decision has to be lodged with the constitutional and/or administrative court within six weeks from the date of its receipt. So our deadline for appealing is August 23. I will willingly lodge this appeal, if you wish, but can do this only if you cover the costs already incurred by our intervention, in particular the two appeals already lodged against the entry ban and the expulsion-arrest, and the costs of the further appeal measures stated, amounting altogether to 4,729.70 euros (about $6,500, including 494.60 court costs, for the payment of which I am personally liable), by August 1 at the latest on my account with the Bank Austria-Creditanstalt Nr. 0962 4407400, BLZ 12000, IBAN: AT08 1100 0096 2440 7400/BIC = BKAUATWW. The costs already incurred by our appeals against the entry ban and the expulsion-arrest, which are also please to be paid without fail by August 1, 2007, amount to 2,467.30 euros (about $3,400, including court costs of 214.60 euros, for which again I am personally liable). Give support for David Irving's hard-fought International Campaign for Real History Payments direct to Vienna lawyer Dr Elizabeth Schaller should be transferred direct to her at Bank Austria-Creditanstalt Nr. 0962 4407400, BLZ 12000, IBAN: AT08 1100 0096 2440 7400/BIC = BKAUATWW. But please notify Mr Irving, so he can thank you personally. Checks can also be sent direct to Dr Herbert Schaller, Gusshaus Strasse 6, A 1040 Vienna, Austria   Photo: David Irving now, July 2007
