CJEU advocate general says Malta’s Bill 55 conflicts with EU law
CJEU Advocate General Nicholas Emiliou said Malta’s Bill 55 was incompatible with EU rules on recognition and enforcement of judgments, according to the report. His opinion is not a final court ruling; the CJEU will decide whether to follow it. The case concerns whether Malta can refuse to enforce certain foreign judgments against locally licensed gambling providers.
A final ruling could affect gambling operators facing enforcement of foreign court judgments in Malta.
