Just think about it....if I came onto your property and dug up a treasure that you didn't know was there, do you think I should be able to keep it all?

Here we go again. You don't give up do you?
From the article:
Spain has decided to go to (the) courts to claim its right in case the discovery is Spanish.

Odyssey has said that the ship was not in Spanish territorial waters and was not HMS Sussex, a shipwreck that Odyssey recently got permission from the Spanish government to search for in the Strait of Gibraltar.
Relax, will ya?
