Jasper Krommendijk and Frederik Zuiderveen Borgesius for EU Law Analysis wrote the useful article ‘How to read CJEU judgments: deciphering the Kirchberg oracle‘. The article is introduced with:

How to read judgments of the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU)? We often get that question from our students, especially those without a legal background. In this blog post, we give some tips to read and interpret such judgments. The blog post is mainly aimed at students who encounter CJEU judgments for the first time. But perhaps the blogs post could also be useful for other readers, such as lawyers from outside the EU, and non-lawyers.
