| Description | This paper deals with the question of personal scope of Regulation Brussels I in the light of the ongoing revision of this instrument. At present, the personal scope of the Regulation depends on the condition that a defendant has domicile in one of the Member States. There are only few exceptions to this rule. Under the revised version, the Regulation would be applicable also in the situation, in which the defendant has the domicile outside the EU. This paper analyzes the present situation of the personal scope, the revised version and its impact on the particular provisions of the Regulation. The paper aims to confirm or refuse the hypothesis that the universal personal scope of the Regulation is not suitable for the rules on jurisdiction within the EU. |
