Règlement 2201/2003 en matière de dissolution du mariage et de responsabilité parentale : synthèse de jurisprudence

This paper presents an overview of the case law of the ECJ in relation to Regulation 2201/2003. The focus is on cases decided by the ECJ and by French and Belgian courts, with a few reference made to court practice in England. Cases are presented and discussed in relation to the various provisions of the Regulation to which they relate. For each case, an abstract is included, followed by (critical) comments. This overview appeared in a book presenting the main European regulations dealing with European procedural law (jurisdiction of courts, recognition and enforcement of foreign judgments). The book is part of a series founded by Prof. Georges de Leval (University of Liège) and edited by Prof. Pierre Moreau, which collects court practice in relation to procedural law.
