European Union European court rules in child custody case

21 Dec 2009 |

• ‘Sofia Echo’ reports that the European Court of Justice ruled in a Slovene-Italian case, saying that “a court of an EU member state in which a child is present cannot provisionally grant custody of the child to one parent if a court of another member state, which has jurisdiction as to the substance of the case, *has already given custody to the other parent”.*
