Argentina court documents - Rudi's dissenting opinion
I recently received the December 13, 1993 135 page dissenting opinion of Daniel Mario Rudi and have scanned it and uploaded a PDF. In their PR statements, the Family International quotes carefully selected and mistranslated parts of the majority opinion by Mansur and Prack but always neglects to mention the dissent by Rudi.

I will be converting this into text and translating it into English as well. Note that when I convert it to text, I am planning on redacting certain names from the document to protect the privacy of victims of child abuse. Also page 29 is missing (I'll post a new file when I get the missing page) and I used an unregistered trial version of PDF X-Change to create the PDF file so on the top corners of each page there is a PDF x-change seal. I will fix that soon. If anyone wants them, I also have the JPEG and PSD images I used to create the file.

Besides a link to Rudi's dissent, I've also included links to some other relevant Argentine court documents I have been able to find.
