About the Court of Justice of the EU
The Court of Justice of the European Union is the judicial institution of the European Union.
It is an institution that comprises two courts – the Court of Justice and the General Court.
The Court enforces and interprets EU law. It ensures that the EU’s institutions and Member States respect this law. The Court provides a single interpretation of EU law so that it is applied in the same way throughout the EU.
About the Court of Justice
The Court of Justice is the highest Court of the European Union. Its mission is to ensure that EU law is followed and applied in the same way across the EU.
It is one of the two courts that together make up the institution called the Court of Justice of the European Union.
It has 27 Judges and 11 Advocates General.
It hears several different types of cases. It mostly deals with questions about EU law sent by national courts and cases brought by the Commission against EU Member States for infringing EU law. It also hears appeals against decisions of the General Court.
About the General Court
The General Court is the lower of the two Courts that make up the Court of Justice of the European Union.
It has 54 Judges, 2 from each Member State.
Its main task is to hear all cases brought by individuals, companies and organisations challenging acts or decisions of the EU’s institutions and other bodies. Through these cases, the General Court ensures that EU institutions respect the law.
It is also responsible for answering some questions referred by national courts.
