Statistics concerning judicial activity in 2015: new records in terms of productivity and cases brought for the Court of Justice of the European Union

The statistics show that 2015 was marked by the exceptional rate of the institution’s judicial activity.
A total of 1 711 cases were brought in 2015 before the three courts comprising the institution. This is the highest annual number of cases brought in the institution’s history. It is the Court of Justice, in particular, that this increase concerns, as the symbolic threshold of 700 cases brought before it was passed for the first time. In addition, with 1 755 cases completed in 2015, the institution’s annual productivity is at an unprecedented level.
