Contents

In the member states of the European Union, few areas of domestic law are left untouched by EU law. EU law is capable of granting rights to and imposing obligations on a number of parties: the member states, the institutions of the EU, and also individuals and companies. If one of these parties does not fulfil its obligations under EU law the rights of other parties may be infringed. The aggrieved party or parties must then be entitled to some form of judicial protection (a remedy). This course focuses on the main forms of judicial protection under EU law, both in proceedings before the European Courts and the courts of the member states.

Examination

Written examination.

Literature
