THE ROLE OF PRELIMINARY RULING TO SECURE UNIFORMITY OF THE EU LEGAL ORDER THROUGHOUT THE MEMBER STATES
THE ROLE OF PRELIMINARY RULING TO SECURE UNIFORMITY OF THE EU LEGAL ORDER THROUGHOUT THE MEMBER STATES

Summary/Abstract: The European Union justice system differs intrinsically from any other international jurisdiction, due to the unique structure of the Court of Justice of the European Union and to the exclusivity of jurisdiction conferred. Both the Treaties and the jurisprudence of the Court determine a dual cooperation between national courts and the CJEU with regard to matters arising from the application of EU law.Unlike direct actions brought before the Court, the preliminary action is a sui generis procedure in the EU judicial process. Introduced by national courts to clarify issues related to the proper administration of a trial on the role, preliminary questions determine preliminary rulings, with an important role to secure uniformity of the EU legal order. The paper presents throughout the analysis some of the most recent preliminary references of the Romanian courts.
