Judgment_paragraph 33 · Skarb Pánstwa Rzeczpospolitej Polskiej – Generalny Dyrektor Dróg Krajowych i Autostrad v Stephan Riel, en qualité d’administrateur judiciaire de Alpine Bau GmbH (C-47/18)

33In that regard, it should be recalled that the Court has held that Regulations No 1215/2012 and No 1346/2000 must be interpreted in such a way as to avoid any overlap between the rules of law laid down by those instruments and any legal vacuum. Accordingly, actions excluded, under Article 1(2)(b) of Regulation No 1215/2012, from the scope of that regulation in so far as they come under ‘bankruptcy, proceedings relating to the winding-up of insolvent companies or other legal persons, judicial arrangements, compositions and analogous proceedings’ fall within the scope of Regulation No 1346/2000. Correspondingly, actions which fall outside the scope of Article 3(1) of Regulation No 1346/2000 fall within the scope of Regulation No 1215/2012 (judgments of 20 December 2017, Valach and Others, C‑649/16, EU:C:2017:986, paragraph 24, and of 4 October 2018, Feniks, C‑337/17, EU:C:2018:805, paragraph 30).
