This article presents a study conducted by classifying all preliminary references raised by Italian judges from December 1, 2009, to December 31, 2022, according to the following criteria: i) number of cases, pre and post-joinder; ii) referral date and closure of the proceedings; iii) referring judge; iv) national and EU acts mentioned in the question; v) Advocate General's opinions; vi) chamber of the Court of Justice that decided/is deciding the case; vii) the procedure by which this has happened/is happening; viii) type of decision made by the Court of Justice; ix) intervention in the proceedings by the Italian government or other Member States' governments. By presenting and cross-referencing these data (which pertain to a sample of 718 referrals), the study provides innovative and precise information on the dialogue between Italian judges and the Court of Justice. It also considers the future prospects of this dialogue, discussing the impact that may have thereon the entry into force of the new Article 363bis of the Italian Code of Civil Procedure and the transfer of certain referrals to the General Court.
Il presente articolo riporta uno studio effettuato catalogando tutti i rinvii pregiudiziali sollevati da giudici italiani dal 1.12.2009 al 31.12.2022 secondo i seguenti criteri: i) numero delle cause, pre e post riunione; ii) data di rinvio e chiusura del procedimento; iii) giudice rimettente; iv) atti nazionali ed UE oggetto del quesito; v) conclusioni dell’Avvocato generale; vi) Sezione della Corte di giustizia che ha deciso/sta decidendo la causa e vii) la procedura con cui ciò è avvenuto/sta avvenendo; viii) tipologia di atto con cui la Corte di giustizia si è pronunciata; ix) intervento in giudizio del governo italiano o di quello di altri Stati membri. Presentando ed incrociando tra loro tali dati, che riguardano un campione di 718 rinvii, lo studio offre dei dati innovativi e precisi sul dialogo tra giudice italiano e Corte di giustizia, anche alla luce delle sue prospettive future (come, ad esempio, l'entrata in vigore del nuovo art. 363bis c.p.c. e il trasferimento di taluni rinvii al Tribunale).
