Brace! Brace! Brace! The Wave of Incoming CJEU Decisions

Abstract

This article considers the large number of pending decisions on data protection matters in front of the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU). The CJEU places great weight on protecting the rights of individuals and has not shied away from decisions that create significant practical difficulties for businesses. Businesses operating in the European Union should therefore brace for significant change ahead. The article also considers the extent to which the courts of the United Kingdom will continue to follow decisions of the CJEU. GDPR, Court of Justice, Brexit, Data Protection, CJEU
