No kidding....why does this take so long?. The Ven gov't publicizes the fact it expropriated these gold properties/assets...there should be nothing to decide other than the amount of compensation. What do these judges..go back and forth between cases and not look at this one for weeks at a time?...this is crazy...for GRZ not to hear anything yet...and they are many months ahead of us. How many cases do they have to hear about Ven exproriating assets before they can fast track these cases...and just decide on monetary compensation......
