Summary

Procedure – Interpretation of a judgment – Conditions for the admissibility of the application

(Rules of Procedure of the Court of First Instance, Art. 129; Council Decision 2004/752, Art. 3(4))

For an application for interpretation of a judgment to be admissible, it must concern the operative part of the judgment in question and the essential grounds thereof, and seek to resolve an obscurity or ambiguity that may affect the meaning or scope of that judgment, in so far as that judgment was intended to resolve the particular case before the Court. Such an application is therefore inadmissible where it seeks to obtain from the Court in question an opinion on the application, implementation or consequences of its judgment or order.
