The Arrival of Romanian Cases before the Court of Justice of the European Union
The Arrival of Romanian Cases before the Court of Justice of the European Union

Summary/Abstract: The European Union’s juditial system is formed by the Court of Justice, the General Court and the specialized courts. As a European Union’s Member State, Romania is one of the beneficiaries of this judicial system. The judicial practice of the Court of Luxembourg shows how, during the seven years of Romania’s membership to the European Union, this State has participated in various cases as both claimant and defendant – either individually or jointly with other European Union’s Member States -; or Romanian private individual (natural or legal persons) have come to the Court of Justice of the European Union; or the Romanian national courts have raised preliminary ruling to the Court of Justice of the European Union concerning the interpretation of the European Union law or on the validity of acts adopted by the European Union’s institutions. In order to examine the relationship between Romania and the Court of Justice of the European Union since this State has adhered to this international organization, the present paper will be divided into two main parts: in the First Part, we will briefly address an approach to the types of competences of the Court of Luxembourg from which Romania could benefit as a Member State of this organization. And we will devote the Second Part of this paper to a study of the jurisprudence that already exists starting 2007 regarding Romania.
