Lis Pendens as the Solution of Jurisdictional Conflicts
Original language description
The contribution deals with the principle of so called lis pendens, which stays that the jurisdiction is kept by the institution which is the first seised of the proceeding involving the same cause of action between the same parties. Thus, lis pendens is one way of dealing with the problem of positive conflicts of jurisdiction in international procedural law. Positive conflict of jurisdiction means that two or more courts of different countries have considered that they are competent to hear and decide the dispute. But, parallel proceedings are unwanted, because it is possible that two incompatible decisions are the result of these proceedings. Lis pendens is based on the time aspect. The time aspect of the initiation of the proceeding prevails (the proceeding which is initiated later should be stayed until the jurisdiction of the first seised court is established). The question of lis pendens will be addressed from the perspective of international divorces of a marriage. The aim of this contribution is to analyse the regulation of lis pendens in international divorce proceedings and outline how lis pendens helps in resolving positive jurisdictional conflicts.
