Game of pleas: an empirical analysis of the pleas raised in recent EU antitrust cases
This research contains an empirical assessment of the pleas raised in recent EU antitrust cases. It analyses all EU competition law judgments issued between May 2004 and December 2016, which deal with Article 101 or 102 TFEU decisions involving restrivtive practises.
The temporal limitation was chosen to ensure that the case law being analyzed was recent (thus covering a recent time span), manageable, but also extensive. Based on the concept of plea-analysis, commission decisions had to be excluded from the scope of this research, which meant that it only analyzed judgments of the Luxemburg courts (CFI, GC and CJEU).

A unique case of looted art
Monday, November 11, 2019Read moreIt started with an international phone call from the lawyers of the Norton Simon Museum in California. Not long after that, assistant professor Lars van Vliet served as an expert witness in a important court case. The stakes: a diptych by Lucas Cranach the Elder, which the heiress of the Jewish art dealer Jacques Goudstikker claimed had been looted. After a court case lasting 12 years, she came away empty-handed – partly due to the research of Lars van Vliet.
