 In March 2017, the court ruled that a distant relative, María Elena de Cárdenas y González (born in 1919), has better rights to the title pf Marchioness of Bellavista than Alicia Koplowitz.However, until all legal options are exhausted, the decision is not yet final.The Spanish Ministry of Justice has not yet issued the Royal Letter of Succession for the Marquessate of Bellavista in favor of de Cárdenas or the corresponding revocation of the title, therefore, the title remains legally in Koplowitz's possession.
