O’Byrne v Aventis Pasteur SA

Court of Justice of the European Union

“While English law allowed for the substitution of one defendant for another outside the limitation period as long as the action was brought within that period, European Union law did not allow the producer of allegedly defective goods to be substituted outside that period, although the action was brought within time.”
