This authoritative Commentary on the recast Regulation 2019/1111 on matters of matrimonial and parental responsibility presents a deep analysis of the Regulation and is authored by leading experts in family law and private international law. Employing a granular, article-by-article approach, the Commentary acts as a detailed reference point on the uniform jurisdiction rules for divorce, legal separation and marriage annulment, as well as for disputes over parental responsibility with an international element, including child abduction.
The recently recast Council Regulation No 2019/1111 (' Brussels II-ter' ), which came into force in August 2022, is the key EU family law Regulation. It governs jurisdiction, recognition and enforcement in matrimonial matters (principally divorce), matters of parental responsibility (principally, custody and access), and international child abduction. This book provides an in-depth discussion of this complex Regulation. Written by three renowned experts, this comprehensive analysis benefits from the collective scope of their experience and knowledge not only of their jurisdictions (Italy, Sweden and the UK) but also more generally of international family law and private international law. Brussels II-ter: Cross-border Marriage Dissolution, Parental Responsibility Disputes and Child Abduction in the EU provides not only a clear exposition of the Regulation's provisions, but also supplies a critical evaluation of these, highlighting the undoubted improvements made by Brussels II-ter while simultaneously exploring its more problematic aspects. An exposition of the relationship between the EU and the UK following Brexit concludes this volume.
The new Brussels II Regulation applies to persons who are either nationals, habitually resident, or domiciled in a member state of the European Community. It deals with issues concerning jurisdiction and recognition in respect of dissolution of marriage and parental responsibility. In relation to decisions regarding parental responsibility, the new regulation is much wider in scope than its predecessor, since it extends to measures for the protection of all children and is not limited to consideration of their interests in the context of matrimonial proceedings. This supplement to International Movement of Children: Law, Practice, and Procedure, the established authoritative text in the area, provides a comprehensive guide to the complexities of the new Brussels II Regulation, including detailed examination of jurisdictional matters, enforcement of access rights, and the revised rules governing international child abduction. The Appendices contain all relevant source material including the full text of the new Regulation.
International parental child abduction is the wrongful removal or retention of a child across national borders, without the consent of those with parental responsibility or court permission. It is generally contrary to the welfare of a child to be uprooted in such a manner, and thus it is in the interest of that child to be returned to the country of his or her habitual residence so that issues relating to custody or access can be resolved there. A Practical Guide to International Parental Child Abduction Law (England and Wales) provides a grounding on the law and practice in return proceedings, encompassing interactions between Hague Contracting States (including member States of the European Union) and non-Convention jurisdictions. Notwithstanding the UK's exit from the EU and the end of an era for EU instruments such as the Council Regulation (EC) No 2201/2003 of 27 November 2003 concerning jurisdiction and the recognition and enforcement of judgments in matrimonial matters and the matters of parental responsibility, repealing Regulation (EC) No 1347/2000 (now repealed by the 2019 Regulation), in this jurisdiction, the UK remains a part of an international framework of treaty obligations independent of EU Laws. Pursuant to the Child Abduction and Custody Act 1985, the 1980 Hague Convention on the Civil Aspects of International Child Abduction is the legal framework for addressing 'Convention' parental child abduction cases, and along with a number of domestic laws, the aim is to protect children from the harmful effects of child abduction across frontiers. It is hoped that the book will guide readers through key topics such as jurisdiction, procedure, applicable law, and enforcement, looking at these through the distinguishing lens of Convention versus non-Convention cases. The book will also explore salient issues around the voice of the child, objections to return, protective measures, other remedies available under the 1980 Hague convention, and mediation.
