42As regards, more specifically, actions coming within matters relating to tort, delict or quasi-delict, it must be noted that, according to the Court’s settled case-law, the concept of ‘matters relating to tort, delict or quasi-delict’ within the meaning of Article 5(3) of Regulation No 44/2001 covers all actions which seek to establish the liability of a defendant and do not concern matters relating to a contract within the meaning of Article 5(1)(a) of that regulation (see, by analogy, judgment of 24 November 2020, Wikingerhof, C‑59/19, EU:C:2020:950, paragraph 23 and the case-law cited).
