Court of Justice of the European Union on Non-material Damage

Summary/Abstract: In many cases, the European Court of Justice decides about compensation for non-material damage. Based on an analysis of the current CJEU established practice concerning compensation for non-material damage, the present paper aims to find answers to the following questions: what is the conception and forms of non-material damage in the CJEU current established practice, i.e., in ECJ and GC, and what meaning does it have for the decisions made by CJEU, what are the different types of non-material damage in the established practice of CJEU, and what are the individual regulatory areas of deciding on compensation for non-material damage. Subsequently, the points of departure will be formulated for decisions on non-material damage to conclude whether, based on the current judicial decisions, it is possible to formulate general principles of trials before CJEU concerning compensation for non-material damage. The present paper would like to contribute to a discussion on issues concerning problems of compensation for non-material as approached in the CJEU judicial decisions.
