In the Master Thesis there is given the analysis of legal acts regarding the enforcement of foreign judgments (in particularly Lithuanian judgments) within EU countries and in non-EU countries. Therefore in the result advantages and disadvantages of both legal systems are pointed out. In this Master Thesis is given detailed overview of main legal acts, case-law of ECJ and national courts. The main focus is to find out whether there are more advantages of enforcement in EU countries or in non-EU countries and where and why it is more disadvantageous to enforce a foreign judgment. In the result, the performed research has disclosed that more advantageous legal regulation is for enforcement of foreign judgment in the EU countries. The main aspect of such decision is the abolition of the exequatur procedure which is time consuming and costly procedure and the possibility to choose under which legal act to enforce a foreign judgment since EU law provides not only one option. |
