As I am walking past the entrance of one of the buildings where the Croatian Constitutional Court has its plush offices, I hear a security guard speaking to a frowning man standing on the pavement by the threshold. “You should wait for the decision,” the guard says and wags his index finger, “which will be delivered to you in writing and by registered mail.” The man keeps frowning. “There is no reason to come here over and over again,” the guard continues in a harsher voice, “for you cannot push anyone around.” I am out of earshot already, but the frowning man remains quiet. When I turn around, I can see that he is standing his ground. He is not budging from the threshold. Is he, just like me, a bit too eager to go to Strasbourg as soon as possible? Has he been, just like me, waiting a bit too long for the decision of the highest court in the country, as required by Strasbourg? Will I, just like him, end up by standing in front of sundry buildings where the Croatian Constitutional court has its ample offices?
