This article defines private international law doctrines of incorporation and real seat and then turns to the analysis of freedom of establishment guaranteed by the EC Treaty. The article analyses judgments of the European Court of Justice, interpreting the freedom of establishment in cases where companies tried to transfer their seats across frontiers, especially in light of the newest judgment in this area in the Cartesio case. The analysis of case law shows the link between the freedom of establishment and private international law doctrines. The article is concluded by a discussion of opportunities that free­dom of establishment provides for companies, alternatives for cross-border business restructurings and implications of rising number of these activities.

The principle of legal certainty and legitimate expectations as a legal tool for individuals in EU law – the mixed nature of EU emergency law: the ‘conferral principle’ limitation and the ways to expand executive powers in the EU response to the crisis (Pringle,ESMA,BPP,OMT) – the existence of legal certainty failures in that response: unpredictable and disjointed legislation and adjudication – arguments blurring legal certainty as the standard of review for EU emergency law: conditionality, international law and indirect legislation – the self-restraint attitude of the European Court of Justice and the risks of leaving litigation under the sole remit of national courts: normalising emergency powers and EU law autonomy at stake

This chapter presents a critical analysis of the case law of the European Court of Justice and of the General Court relating to the application of the international law of treaties. It covers the some forty cases in which the Courts have referred explicitly to the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties 1969, and a few more where this happened implicitly, during the period 1998–2010. Inevitably the emphasis falls on the application of the rules of treaty interpretation to the international agreements concluded by the European Union (EU), but also to the founding treaties of the EU itself. The Courts have been confronted with great regularity with questions relating to the law of treaties and thus have become increasingly sophisticated in their use of it. The recent accusation that the Court is adverse to international law seems to be based on a few dramatic cases, not on the steady stream of smaller cases in which the law of treaties plays a role.

Resumen: El objeto del presente trabajo es el estudio de la STJUE de 1 de marzo de 2018, cono­cido como asunto Mahnkopf. Este asunto es interesante no sólo por lo que recoge el TJUE sino también por lo que calla. Esto es así porque este caso trae a colación problemas jurídicos de gran calado para el Derecho internacional privado como el problema de la calificación. Pero sobre todo pone sobre la mesa un aspecto que va a ser clave en el Derecho europeo de sucesiones y es la relación entre el Derecho suce­sorio y los aspectos relativos al régimen económico matrimonial y cómo estas cuestiones pueden quedar reflejadas en el nuevo instrumento creado por el Reglamento 650/2012, el certificado sucesorio europeo.Palabras clave: Derechos sucesorios, certificado sucesorio europeo, régimen económico matrimo­nial, Reglamento europeo de sucesiones.Abstract: The goal of this paper is to the Judgment of the European Court of Justice of 1 March 2018, Known as Mahnkopf affair. This case is interesting not only because of what the CJEU establishes but also because of what is silent. This is because this case brings up legal problems of great importance to private international law such as the problem of qualification. But above all, it puts on the table an aspect that will be key in European succession law. It is the relationship between succesion law and aspects related to the matrimonial property regime and how these elements can be reflected in the new instrument created by the Regulation 650/2012, the European Certificate of Succession.Keywords: Succesion rights of the surviving spouse, European certificate of succesion, matrimo­nial property regime, European succession regulation.

This chapter deals with the status of international law in the EU legal order under the Lisbon Treaty. It presents in great detail the most important cases of the European Court of Justice (ECJ) on the incorporation of international agreements and their rank in the domestic legal order. The origins and current practice of the doctrine of direct effect for specific provisions in an international agreement are explained. Moreover, the chapter contains an assessment of the famous ECJ Kadi-jurisprudence on the significance of human rights in the implementation of UN Security Council Resolutions on counter-terrorism. Finally, it also shows with concrete examples how the Court of Justice developed the status of customary international law in the EU.

Abstract The decision of the European Court of Justice (‘ECJ’) in Feniks sp z o o v Azteca Products & Services SL provides further insight into the demarcation of the head of jurisdiction in matters relating to a contract, which is contained in the Brussels I Regulation Recast, Article 7(1). In particular, the decision characterises an avoidance action, a so-called actio pauliana, as a contractual matter. As a consequence, disputes that are based on such an action can be brought in the court of the place of performance of the contractual obligation the avoidance action aims to protect. This contribution will explain that while the decision of the ECJ is seemingly in line with recent precedents, it cannot be reconciled with the principle of predictability of jurisdiction, because the decision is based on an overly broad interpretation of the concept of ‘matters relating to a contract’. The ramification of the decision is that a third party that is somehow involved in the contractual dealings of others is at risk of being sued in the place of performance of a contract with which it has a too tenuous connection.
