Scotland's highest court refers anti-Brexit challenge to CJEU
Focus on equal access to assisted death rather than risks of legalisation for oppressed groups wrongheaded, MPs and campaigners say
SCOTLAND’S highest civil court today referred an anti-Brexit legal challenge to the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU).
The Court of Session in Edinburgh announced it would ask the CJEU if Britain can unilaterally revoke its Article 50 request to leave the EU.
Any court or tribunal of an EU member state can ask the CJEU for a preliminary ruling on a question of EU law, but the final decision in the case still remains with the referring court.
