Two years ago, the EU passed a resolution to harmonize the conflict-of-law rules governing inheritance across the European Union. The hope was to simplify the conflict-of-law procedure so that each jurisdiction knew which nation’s rules applied without jeopardizing the substantive law. In addition, the EU re-forged the rules of evidence governing inheritance to further standardize this area of law. This August, that resolution comes into effect.
To learn about the intricacies and the effects of this resolution, please join American University’s Washington College of Law on March 25th when they host a panel on EU regulation 650/2012. Speakers hail from France, and should provide an instructive discussion.
