May I ask whether you case is about the use of Article 15 as a head for jurisdiction of French courts, or as ground for denial of recognition for foreign judgments? Mr Sokol,

thanks for this very interesting post.

May I ask whether you case is about the use of Article 15 as a head for jurisdiction of French courts, or as ground for denial of recognition for foreign judgments?

I don't have the cite in front of me. The Cour de Cassation has also ruled recently on Article 14 along the same lines as the Prieur decision. I don’t have the cite in front of me.

I filed the case in Strasbourg in 2004. In 2007 the Court ordered France to respond and state why Art. 15 does not violate the convention. France has now replied arguing that it does not violate the Convention, and I am presently drafting my reply brief which is due at the end of the month. In fact, that is how I found your site. The case is McDonald c. France, No. 18648/04.I also take some credit for the Prieur decision as I think it resulted from my case.

Also, it is easier for the reader to find the judgment if you give the pourvoi number(05-20473 in this case), because the Cour de cassation can give many judgments in a day .
