ENTRY INTO FORCE OF REGULATION 1215/2012
On January 10, 2015, entered into force Regulation 1215/2012 on jurisdiction and the recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters, which replaces Regulation 44/2001 (http://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/PDF/?uri=CELEX:32012R1215&from=EN).
Although this new EU regulation implies some changes in the field of international jurisdiction (lis pendens with third States, etc.), undoubtedly its essential novelty is the abolition of exequatur for the enforcement of judgments of the EU Member States courts, regarding issues where applicable Regulation 1215.
