The finite judicial decisions of the EU Court in Luxembourg. EU case-law is one of the motors of further integration.
The Court of Justice has among other things used its judicial competences to fill gaps in the treaties and legislation. It also develops new legal principles, derived from the objectives of the Treaties as well as their specific wording, which has the practical effect of extending integration directed to "än ever closer Union" further.
The future
The Lisbon Treaty provides that a qualified majority is allowed to establish new specialsied courts as part of the EU Court.
