Czech Republic: The Localisation of Damage
Original language description
The Chapter concerns the issue of non-contractual obligations (delicts) under the Czech and European private international law. In the Czech domestic law, the proximity of the court to the dispute is a relevant criterion: it is reflected in the grounds for special/local jurisdiction. These rules are contained in the Code of Civil Procedure. In cross-border cases, Czech courts follow the extensive interpretation of the CJEU of Art. 7(2) Brussels I bis Regulation. The Contribution provides an analysis of both EU law (Rome II Regulation and Brussels I Regulation) and Czech law (Private International Law Act), including case law, the main connecting factors being lex loci damni and lex loci delicti. It is somewhat of a surprise that the CJEU case-law is also stated in reasons for the decisions of Czech courts when ruling on local jurisdiction in delict matters in purely domestic cases. The findings, in addition to detailed CJEU case law in this area, show that the principles developed by the CJEU related to cross-border cases cannot be fully applied in cases that are purely domestic, as it is evidenced by the still inconsistent jurisprudence of Czech courts in non-material damage actions.
