Der Grundsatz ne bis in idem im Wettbewerbsrecht

<p>This dissertation provides practitioners and scholars with an overview of the European Court of Justice’s recent shift in case law regarding the prohibition of double jeopardy in competition law. After more than 50 years, the Court has abandoned its special approach specific to antitrust law in the bpost and Nordzucker judgments. The dissertation systematically analyzes this development and examines its implications for cross-border antitrust proceedings. The thesis is intended for attorneys, in-house counsel, and scholars involved in competition law enforcement proceedings. Sophie Engelhardt is an attorney specializing in antitrust law.</p>
