Owing to the unprecedented health crisis that we are currently experiencing, the Court of Justice has been obliged temporarily to change its working arrangements.
Judicial activity continues, but priority is of course given to those cases that are particularly urgent (urgent proceedings, expedited proceedings and interim proceedings).
Procedural time limits for instituting proceedings and lodging appeals continue to run and parties are required to comply with those time limits, without prejudice to the possible application of the second paragraph of Article 45 of the Protocol on the Statute of the Court of Justice of the European Union.
By contrast, the time limits prescribed in on-going proceedings – with the exception of the abovementioned proceedings that are particularly urgent – are extended by one month. Those time limits shall expire at the end of the day which, in the following month, is numbered the same as the day on which the time-limit should have expired or, if that day does not exist in the following month, at the end of the day of the last day of that month.
Until further notice, the time limits that are to be fixed by the registry shall also be increased by one month.
Hearings that are listed between now and 30 April 2020 are adjourned until a later date.
