View CJEU judgments by ECLI number

This form lets you directly open the Eur-Lex document for a CJEU judgment or Advocate-General opinion using the document's ECLI number e.g. ECLI:EU:C:2020:559. (Or: use this form instead to view text of judgments etc by C- or T- case number.) 

Instructions:

  • C is pre-selected. Change the dropdown to T only if it's a T case (General Court), e.g. if looking for ECLI:EU:T:2025:831.
  • Enter the ECLI:EU year and number after the C: or T: in the boxes below; for convenience the cursor is already in the Year box so you can start entering the year immediately.
    • Tip: press the Tab key to move quickly from dropdown to Year box to Number box.
  • Then, press Enter or click the View... button to view the document in another tab.

ECLI:EU:::

To view another judgment etc. by its ECLI number, just refresh/reload this page.

Notes:

  • Created because I couldn't find anything relevant when trying to search by entering the ECLI number in the official ECLI search form, although the Eur-Lex quick search is better
  • Unlike with case numbers, judgments and A-G opinions etc may have different ECLI numbers
  • F cases (Civil Service Tribunal) are not catered for above
  • Only works for CJEU case documents, not any Member State national cases.

View CURIA judgments in EUR-LEX

This form lets you directly open the Eur-Lex document for a CJEU judgment or Advocate-General opinion using the document's case number (updated 13 Apr 2026). (Or: use this form instead to view text of judgments etc by ECLI number.)

Instructions:

  • C- is pre-selected, for ECJ cases. Just select T- instead if the case number starts with T-, for General Court cases (like T-325/23). Or, select A-G if you want to see the Advocate-General's opinion for that case.
  • You can leave the checkbox blank, ticking it only if the number ends with a P (e.g. C-703/25 P), which is rare.
  • Enter the case number in the box in the format firstnumber/secondnumber. Just start typing the number if it's a C- case, the cursor is already in the box. Then, click View... or press Enter on your keyboard.
  • This will open a new browser tab showing the judgment's EUR-LEX webpage.


To view another judgment or opinion's EUR-LEX webpage, just refresh/reload this page.

EU AI Act resources

My key EU AI Act resources:

  1. Linkable EU AI Act, where you can visit/link directly to the text of specific Articles/Recitals etc: bit.ly/eu-aiact (see that link for instructions)

  2. EU AI Act scope - diagrams on roles bit.ly/eu-aiactscope

  3. Timeline bit.ly/eu-aiacttimeline and commencement dates bit.ly/eu-aiactdates

  4. My AI jargon-busting demystifying video on basic technical AI/machine learning concepts, to help AI literacy bit.ly/aijargon
  5. Key supply chain/value chain terms/relationships (AI model, AI system, provider, deployer) under the AI Act: bit.ly/eu-aiact-supplychain

  6. Flowchart on automated decision-making (ADM) under the EU GDPR (NB pre-the UK Data (Use & Access) Act 2025)
Obviously the Digital Omnibus on AI, under the EU Digital Simplification package (press release), proposes to amend the AI Act.

But generally it won't change the above overviews, except commencement timings (and AI literacy obligations). And of course it's not been passed yet, though it's getting there. For ease of ref:

  1. European Parliament's news release 18 Mar 2026 and its MEP-approved text (added: European Parliament's 26 Mar 26 text)

  2. Council of the European Union's press release 13 Mar 2026 and Council's text

  3. European Commission's original draft amendments to the AI Act: Proposal for a REGULATION OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL amending Regulations (EU) 2024/1689 and (EU) 2018/1139 as regards the simplification of the implementation of harmonised rules on artificial intelligence (Digital Omnibus on AI), COM/2025/836 final

👀Let's see how the negotiations go!

Recall: even UK and other non-EU providers and deployers (users) of AI systems may be caught by the AI Act. May I repeat my AI Act jurisdiction song...

🧑‍🌾Old MacDonald had a thought, EU AI O!
Could AI Act apply or not? EU AI O!
If his output's used in the EU, yes!
Many other aspects extraterritorial
Old MacDonald, check your role(s)! EU AI O!
