Update | p. 314

Page: 314 Chart Number: 12/4 Chart Title: Jurisdiction of the different levels of the CJEU

The box in the seventh row at the very bottom entitled “Notes:” must read:

Notes:
• The Treaty provisions do not specify which level of the CJEU has jurisdiction of a given procedure. Instead, the TFEU simply speaks about “the Court”. The jurisdiction in a concrete case has to be determined according to the above rules.
• Under Art. 256(3) TFEU, the General Court has jurisdiction to deal with requests for preliminary rulings in specific areas laid down by the Statute; these areas are _defined in Art. 50b of the Statute.

As a consequence:

From the box with the text “Preliminary ruling” at the very right-hand side in the fifth row (the row is marked “Type of procedure“), there needs to be

an additional arrow pointing towards

the box with the text “General Court (GC)” in the sixth row (the row is marked “Courts“).
