CELS Lunchtime Seminar: 'The CJEU, its legal reasoning, and its interaction with its Advocates-General'

Speaker: Eleanor Sharpston KC, Advocate General, CJEU (2006-2020) and Goodhart Professor, University of Cambridge (2023/2024) 

Abstract: The CJEU is a court that speaks through a single judgment, and that ‘dialogues’ with its Advocates General without ever saying quite what that dialogue means. What is the reader to make of the interplay between the individual opinion of the advocate general and the collective decision of the judges? The final seminar in the series asks some questions, suggests some partial answers, and invites reflection on whether the current arrangements should ‘evolve’ (and, if so, in what direction).

This event is a hybrid event and will take place in G24 (preceded by a sandwich lunch in G26 at 12.30pm) - if you wish to attend, please register your interest via: cels@law.cam.ac.uk.
