Abstract :A land dispute case, important both legally and politically, is currently being heard in Western Thrace, a region in Greece coniguous to the Turkish frontier.1 This land dispute, which first began in 1953 as a result of an expropriation move by the Greek Government, has gone through the legal phases summarized below, and is presently at the stage of recourse to the Greek Court of Appeals, the appellants being the Western Thrace villagers who have been declared as "unlawful interferents" by the ruling of a Court of First Instance in Iskeçe (Xanthy).
