Miranda de Savorgnani interviewed by LexisPSL on a ECJ case

Miranda de Savorgnani recently gave an interview to LexisPSL on a recent European Court of Justice case, ruling under the Brussels I Regulation, Aannemingsbedrijf Aertssen NV & Another Company v VSB Machineverhuur BV & Others: C-523/14 [2015] All ER (D).

The case clarifies that ancillary civil matters brought in the context of criminal proceedings qualify as civil proceedings in their own right under Brussels I and Brussels I (recast). The amendments to Brussels I will assist the determination of the time when a court is first seised, by requiring greater cooperation between courts.
