Description
Fernando CASTILLO DE LA TORRE and Eric GIPPINI FOURNIER. Evidence, proof and judicial review in EU competition law. Cheltenham, UK : Edward Elgar Publishing, 2024, xli, 492p.
In this thoroughly revised new edition of what quickly became the authoritative work when first published in 2017, Fernando Castillo de la Torre and Eric Gippini Fournier, two of the most experienced litigators in EU competition law, update their systematic analysis of the case law of the EU Courts on the rules of evidence, proof and judicial review, as they are applied in EU competition law.Fairness in the public enforcement of EU competition law is closely scrutinised and therefore maintaining robust rules on the presentation of evidence, and on the burden and standard of proof is paramount, so much the more in the context of digital markets. Also critical to the EU’s commitment to fundamental rights is sound procedure and the right to judicial review. All of these are carefully reviewed in this book from the perspective of those who have been closest to the cases, with the result that the authors construct a definitive yet balanced portrayal of the state of EU competition law.
