Abstract

Regulation (EU) 2019/1111 on Jurisdiction, Recognition and Enforcement of Decisions in Matrimonial Matters and the Matters of Parental Responsibility, and on International Child Abduction (Brussels IIter Regulation) applies to the recognition and enforcement of decisions rendered in other Member States of the European Union (with exception of Denmark) in some matrimonial matters and in parental responsibility matters.

The essay provides a first approach to the general features of the regime of recognition and enforcement contained in Chapter IV of the Regulation, referring to the purpose of this Chapter, characterizing its recognition system, examining its material, spatial and temporal scopes and pointing out the main changes regarding the grounds for refusal of recognition and enforcement.
