Giovanni Chiapponi: Interfaces between National and EU Law, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Blurb

This book aims at exploring possible solutions to remove the obstacles to the free circulation of judgments in the civil justice area which arise from the remarkably different national rules on procedural time limits. The interplay between national and EU law reveals that time limits raise significant challenges connected with the right to a fair trial under Art. 6 ECHR and Art. 47 CFR, which negatively impact EU cross-border civil litigation. To overcome some of the weaknesses of the current legal framework governing the cross-border enforcement of judgments and strengthen the parties' procedural rights, the book intends to determine whether and to what extent time limits can be harmonised at EU level. Giovanni Chiapponi is doctor in law at the universities of Luxembourg and Bologna.
