49Furthermore, it is settled case-law that the rules of jurisdiction which derogate from the general principle, set out in the first paragraph of Article 2 of the Convention, that the courts of the Contracting State in which the defendant is domiciled or established are to have jurisdiction, cannot give rise to an interpretation going beyond the cases expressly envisaged by the Convention (see, in particular, Handte, paragraph 14; Case C-89/91 Shearson Lehman Hutton v TVB [1993] ECR I-139, paragraphs 15 and 16; Case C-269/95 Benincasa v Dentalkit [1997] ECR I-3767, paragraph 13; and Case C-51/97 Reunion Européenne and Others [1998] ECR I-6511, paragraph 16).
