Jack McCoy
Chief Justice of the ECOJ -
In light of the passage of the Amendment to the European and Accountable Council Act 2020, the clauses referenced and the remedy proposed are no longer part of EU Law.
While I still maintain that the Union of Syndicates was in breach of EU Law during the period prior to the passage of the amendment, the repeal of EACA §V (specifically §V.III) makes any prosecution invalid, and it was not my intention to establish a court precedent or litigate a case heavily dependent on the Court's position regarding the potentials in the retroactive effect of repeal legislation when not specifically enumerated in said repeal legislation.
As such, I hereby request a Leave of Court be granted so that I may file a nolle prosequi with intent to cease prosecution of this case, for the justifications cited above, and have it dismissed without prejudice by this Court.
Charles Michel
Council Speaker -
I hereby grant Speaker Michel his request for Leave of Court.
Jack McCoy
Chief Justice of the ECOJ -
Thank you Your Honour.
Chief Justice McCoy, Your Honours, representatives of the Union of Syndicates:
Pursuant to the grant of a Leave of Court, I hereby make an entry to nolle prosequi the charges from the Prosecution, as authorised by myself in my capacity as the Speaker of the European Council and the Head of the Office of the Speaker of the European Council.
As such, we are dismissing the charges for the justifications as stated in the filing request for a Leave of Court, and we will no longer prosecute against the Union of Syndicates on the matter initially petitioned in this case, as stated.
May it Please the Court, we now ask that this case be dismissed without prejudice as a matter of record and this session of the European Court of Justice be closed.
The Prosecution rests.
Charles Michel
Council Speaker -
Request to drop the case from Prosecution is granted and the case is dismissed without prejudice.
