Brexit and consumers: the Court in C-621/18 Wightman

Dear readers,

A quick update. Yesterday the Court of Justice delivered its judgment in C-621/18 Wightman. The Court confirmed that the UK can indeed unilaterally withdraw its intention to leave the EU (see for a full analysis here), largely following AG Sanchez-Bordona's Opinion (on which we reported here).

Although the judgment is very generous, its real effect is yet to be seen. As always, we will keep you updated.
