This judgment sets forth the requirements put on mandatory alternative dispute resolutions (ADRs) in Member States.

The Alassini judgment further elaborates on the principle of effective judicial protection in relation to the mandatory out-of-court-dispute resolutions and the legal effects of Commissions Recommendations on the latter. |
