This record is a draft: it has not been reviewed yet and may be incomplete or wrong. Do not rely on it for compliance decisions. Help improve it (see CONTRIBUTING.md).
Identifier of a court decision, introduced by conclusions of the Council of the European Union published in 2011. It has five parts separated by colons: ECLI, the country code, a court code of at most seven characters, the year of the decision and a unique part of at most 25 letters, digits and dots. Country codes follow the EU style guide, so Greece is EL and the United Kingdom UK; the EU courts use EU and the European Court of Human Rights CE.
