 Rule 2:21 Appeal to Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court: When No Other Interlocutory Appellate Review is Possible
Meuse's conduct was necessary as an emergency measure to avoid his child's muscles from atrophying, which was likely to have happened had the child remained in her mother's custody.
Meuse's refusal to give mother the child was not an intentional violation of a court order, it was a refusal to sentence his child needlessly to life as a handicapped individual.
Meuse was thus justified in the action he took, to wit, to remove the child out of harm's way and give her proper child care, something she was not receiving from her mother in Florida.

 The Diversion of the Water From the Meuse   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
The Court finds that the Treaty does not forbid the Netherlands from altering the depth of water in the Meuse at Maestricht without the consent of Belgium, provided that neither the discharge of water through the feeder, nor the volume of water which it must supply, nor the current in the Zuid-Willemsvaart is thereby affected.
The fundamental object of the Treaty is to allow the withdrawal from the Meuse of a certain quantity of water, fixed with reference to the level of the river.
Another object is to establish a regime for the Meuse capable of maintaining and improving its navigability in spite of the quantity of water which would be extracted from the river.

Apart from problems concerning the internal drainage of the area, the subsidence is so large that during high flood stages in the river Meuse the area is under severe risk of flooding if one of the surrounding dikes would break.
Using the flood waves of the 1993 and 1995 in the River Meuse as hydraulic boundary conditions, flooding scenarios were simulated assuming dike breaches at various locations and different widths.
All measures were weighted on their effect on the flooding of the area and associated damages on the one hand and on their costs on the other.
