Jurisdiction, recognition & enforcement of civil/commercial judgments (recast)

This procedure updates the rules on how court judgments from one EU member state are recognized and enforced in another. It aims to simplify the process of ensuring that legal decisions in civil and commercial disputes are respected across borders, reducing legal uncertainty and bureaucracy.

This affects individuals and businesses involved in cross-border legal disputes. It streamlines the way courts handle foreign judgments, making it easier for parties to claim damages or enforce contracts across the EU.
