The paper is devoted to the admissibility of recognition and enforcement of a judgment of a foreign court, the subject matter of which is recognition or declaration of enforcement of a judgment from yet another state (judgment on judgment). The issue is discussed in particular with reference to the public policy exception which constitutes a ground for refusal of recognition or enforcement of foreign judgments, both under Polish domestic law (the Code of civil procedure) and European law (Brussels I bis Regulation). It remains controversial whether the judgments on judgments should be recognized, thus benefiting from the so called “parallel entitlement”. The article takes a comparative approach, examining solutions adopted by various legal systems and analysing arguments for and against recognition of such decisions. The author takes the position that they should not be recognized (and that their enforceability should not be declared) in Poland, both under the Code of civil procedure (as with respect to judgments originating from non-EU states), as well as under EU legislation, in particular Brussels I bis Regulation. It is advocated that the concept of a “parallel entitlement” should be rejected.

This article explains in detail the rules on the obligations of the judge, the parties and their lawyers in civil litigation, prepared by a working group that was established within the context of a project on European Rules of Civil Procedure of the European Law Institute and UNIDROIT. These rules are grouped into several parts devoted to the overriding objective of the proposed rules, management and planning of the proceedings, the determination of facts, findings of law, and consensual dispute resolution. The suggested rules reflect best practices in European civil procedure.


This volume was developed as part of a cooperative project of the European Law Institute (ELI) and the International Institute for the Unification of Private Law (UNIDROIT), dealing with civil procedure law. The long-term project began in February of 2014 and ended in February of 2020, concluding in an ELI-UNIDROIT Instrument. The volume consists of the ELI-UNIDROIT Instrument on the European Rules of Civil Procedure, which features Rules and accompanying comments. It explores the diverse traditions in Europe concerning civil procedure law and aims to find a common thread in them. Therefore, it not only considers the similarities but also the differences in order to gain a solution that does not favour one legal system but combines aspects of all legal systems.

En otoño de 2020 el European Law Institute y UNIDROIT aprobaron las European Rules of Civil Procedure, un conjunto sistemático de normas a través de las que se diseña un modelo de proceso civil con potencial para resultar operativo en cualquier país europeo. Se trata, obviamente, de un instrumento de soft law, que se basa en un extenso y prolongado trabajo de comparación jurídica, que ha permitido detectar las mejores soluciones a las necesidades que suscita hoy en día un sistema de justicia civil eficiente. Se analizan qué son y qué no son las European Rules, al tiempo que se desgranan los rasgos esenciales del modelo procesal civil diseñado, caracterizado por la flexibilidad, la gestión activa del procedimiento y el esfuerzo sostenido por la solución consensual del litigio. Es difícil vaticinar cuál será su impacto futuro, aunque sin duda las European Rules of Civil Procedure están llamadas a desempeñar un papel relevante en cualquier tarea de armonización procesal civil que se emprenda en el futuro, en la medida en que han demostrado que técnicamente resulta posible y que, por tanto, las variables de las que depende son primordialmente políticas.

Various authors have drawn attention to the fact that a new European law of civil procedure is in the process of being created. The kernel of this new law is the 1968 Brussels Convention on Jurisdiction and the Enforcement of Judgments in Civil and Commercial Matters. Further areas of law are in part harmonised by the 1965 Hague Service Convention and the 1970 Hague Evidence Convention. While a certain set of “core” European rules has been established, there remains a penumbra: an area within which it is unclear how far traditional national rules may retain a role.
