The new Volume 12 of the Commentary deals with European civil procedure law and its core, the Brussels 1a Regulation. It outlines the questions and changes related to the revised version from 2015 with regard to the hitherto existing legal situation. It attempts to integrate not only the provisions of the Brussels 1a Regulation and the case law which originated from it into the context of German civil procedure law but also to deal with the pertinent questions of European civil procedure law from a common European perspective.
