Summary/Abstract: The emergence of unified European network sustaining the communication between courts might be perceived as a precondition for the existence and smooth evolution of the so called European legal area. The concept of cyberspace as a vehicle for communication between different judicial actors operating within European legal environment will enable us to formulate two fundamental assumptions: Firstly, the underlying premises of the European Court of Justice while adjudicating along with art 234 ECT require the existence of a network composed out of multi-level horizontal providers, such as ECJ, EChR, Constitutional Courts of Member States (1-st level), Courts of last instance according to art. 234 ECT point 3 (2-nd level), other Domestic Courts according to art. 234 ECT point 2 (3-rd level).
