Presidential responsibilities include assigning cases to Judges and presiding over the Grand Chamber to deal with the most important cases. New developments in case law, evolving technological access, and finding balance between unity and diversity, privacy and security, are addressed by the head of the EU’s judicial institution.President Lenaerts in total has spent 35 years as a European Union Judge, initially serving on the Court of First Instance of the European Communities (now the General Court) when it was established in 1989.

„Dass der EuGH als internationales Gericht angesehen wird, ist ein großes Missverständnis“ – Interview mit Prof. Dr. Koen Lenaerts
No full textCross-border Collective Redress and the Jurisdictional Regime: Horizontal vs Sectoral Approach
No full textIn the context of private enforcement, collective redress is assuming an important role at European Union level as a procedural means to protect collective interests. Legislative developments show a twofold approach: a horizontal framework with common principles has been proposed, though with non-binding nature, and sector-specific legislation has introduced collective redress procedures mainly for consumers. However, also in other fields it shall be a viable procedural remedy, such as in the employment context. Rarely, the Court of Justice addressed collective proceedings and private international law issues, mainly related to the jurisdictional regime. Cross-border situations are not specifically addressed in the relevant Regulations, neither among the common principles or in the specific legislation. An exception is the reference to the extension of the application of the existing Regulations included in the Proposal on representative actions for consumer protection. The horizontal and sectoral approaches, including the applicability of the existing private international law rules, particularly on jurisdiction, are thus debated

Koen Lenaerts, Eugene Regan, Ulla Neergaard and Karsten Ensig Sørensen (eds), Shaping a Genuine Area of Freedom, Security and Justice (Hart 2024)
No full textThe Area of Freedom, Security and Justice (AFSJ), established by the Treaty of Lisbon under Article 3(2) TEU and regulated under Title V of the TFEU, is increasingly occupying a central place in the case law of the Court of Justice of the EU (CJEU). The former Vice-President of the Court, Judge Lars Bay Larsen, has played a key role in the development of the relevant case law, having acted as judge-rapporteur in a series of foundational cases for the interpretation of key concepts in the AFSJ. The purpose of the book under review is to honour his work, trace the development of case law in the area, and illustrate the function of the AFSJ as a driving force of EU law. Under the editorial direction of Koen Lenaerts, Eugene Regan, Ulla Neergaard, and Karsten Engsig Sørensen, a total of 36 authors with diverse academic and professional backgrounds, have come together to celebrate the work of Lars Bay Larsen and his contribution to the development of the AFSJ. The edited collection comprises 29 essays presented in four parts, which focus respectively on the framework, the driving principles, the dynamics, and the impact of the AFSJ. After a brief presentation of the contents of each of the four parts, the review will discuss the practical value as well as the constraints of this work
