"Everyone has the right to effective legal protection before the competent national tribunals against all acts violating his fundamental rights as provided for by the constitution or by
law."
Explanation of Article 8
The aim of this provision is to give everyone the right to bring an action before a national court if they feel that their rights have been violated. This does not mean the rights of the
Universal Declaration of Human Rights, but all those rights that can be derived from the constitution or laws of the respective state.
