Goldbet Sportwetten GmbH v Sperindeo (Case C-144/12); [2013] WLR (D) 230

“Pursuant to article 6 of Parliament and Council Regulation (EC) No 1896/2006 creating a European order for payment procedure, read in conjunction with article 17, a statement of opposition to a European order for payment that did not contain any challenge to the jurisdiction of the court of the member state of origin did not constitute ‘the entering of an appearance’ within the meaning of article 24 of Council Regulation (EC) No 44/2001 on jurisdiction and the recognition and enforcement of judgments in civil and commercial matters, and the fact that the defendant had, in the statement of opposition lodged, put forward arguments relating to the substance of the case was irrelevant.”
