Court of Justice of the European Union

Since the establishment of the Court of Justice of the European Union in 1952, its mission has been to ensure that "the law is observed" "in the interpretation and application" of the Treaties.

As part of that mission, the Court of Justice of the European Union:

• reviews the legality of the acts of the institutions of the European Union,
• ensures that the Member States comply with obligations under the Treaties, and
• interprets European Union law at the request of the national courts and tribunals.¹
