Abstract :
[en] In this paper, I attempt to examine whether the application of the lis alibi pendens provisions to be found in the Brussels and Lugano Conventions (the former now being replaced by the Brussels I Regulation) does not unreasonably limit the right of access to court. The analysis focuses in particular on the issue of the time at which a court is seized and the principle of equality of weapons between plaintiff and defendant. This paper was presented at a conference in Lisbon, financed by the EU Commission.
