Imposition Of A Fine By An Authority Of A Foreign State On A Polish Individual For A Speeding Offence. Gloss On The Judgment Of The Court Of Justice Of April 7, 2022, C-150/21 .

Abstract

The gloss deals with the judgment of the Court of Justice of the European Union C-150/21,
in which the Court addressed the solution of a dogmatic-legal problem based on an analysis
of the interpretation of the concept of „judgment” within the meaning of Article 1(a)(ii) of
Council Framework Decision 2005/214/JHA and the concept of „court having jurisdiction
also in criminal matters”. The author shared the position of the Court, which resolved the
interpretative doubts of the District Court for Lodz-Centre in Lodz, stating that a final decision
imposing a fine issued by an authority of another Member State against an individual who
committed a speeding offence in another Member State – should be considered a decision
against which an appeal to a „court having jurisdiction also in criminal matters” is possible.
