Court of Justice of the EU<br />

• If a country does not apply the law properly, the <strong>European</strong> Commission<br />

may complain and ultimately bring the case to the Court of Justice of<br />

the EU.<br />

• <strong>The</strong> Court of Justice of the EU makes sure that EU laws are respected,<br />

and are applied in the same way everywhere. It has one judge from<br />

each EU country.<br />

• <strong>The</strong> Court of Justice of the EU was set up in the 1950s under the EU’s<br />

founding treaties and has its seat in Luxembourg.
