In conjunction with the Journal of Private International Law, Reed Smith is hosting The Brussels I Regulation Recast. Topics include:

  • Enabling courts designated by the parties as having exclusive jurisdiction themselves to determine that jurisdiction, regardless of when seized.
  • Extension of jurisdiction rules to non-EU defendants in specified circumstances.
  • Simplifying the system for enforcing judgments across EU Member States.
  • Better coordination of parallel proceedings.
