On 28 April 2016, Kosovo Judicial Institute within PTV and with the support of UNDP conducted training on "Procedure and Preliminary Ruling of the European Court of Justice".
The purpose of this training was to deepen the knowledge of judges on how to put into motion the procedure of preliminary ruling, which issues can be addressed through this decision, what are the procedures before EJC, how operates the referring court after receiving preliminary ruling?
During the training were also treated the effects of these decisions and their implementation by national courts and procedures that take place in the European Court of Justice and including its features.
The training also focused on the elaboration of the dilemmas that arise in the practice of national courts concerning the preliminary reference when hearing cases of EJC concerning interpretation of European Union law. This aims to prepare judges and prosecutors and provide them knowledge on the EU Law and procedures developed in the relevant institutions of the EU, since the Republic of Kosovo currently is in the phase of the European integration process which besides harmonization of the legislation with the EU standards is paying a special attention also to the reforms in the judicial system.
Beneficiaries of this training were judges of basic courts and the Court of Appeal, and professional associates.
