Abstract

Due to the Association Agreement between Georgia and the European Union and the diversific­a­tion of trade relations, it is important to actively harmonize Georgian civil procedural legislation with the EU Civil Procedure Law. For this purpose, it is interesting to review the definitions of the European Court of Justice on the issues related to the recognition and enforcement of the provisional measures.

The role of the institute of provisional measure is great because the enforcement is an integral part of the fair trial. There are cases of adoption of provisional measures, cancellation of provisional measures and the denial of the provisional measures in the practice of the European Court of Human Rights. It is important to review the precedential decisions and the special definitions related to the provisional measures. In case the state submits a unilateral guarantee, the European Court of Human Rights shall cancel the provisional measure.
