263In the first place, it should be noted that it follows from the principles recalled in paragraphs 63 to 74 of the present judgment that, while the distribution or reorganisation of court jurisdiction in a Member State comes, in principle, under the freedom of the Member States guaranteed by Article 4(2) TEU (see, by analogy, judgment of 21 December 2016, Remondis, C‑51/15, EU:C:2016:985, paragraph 47), that distribution or reorganisation must not, in particular, undermine respect for the rule of law set out in Article 2 TEU and the requirements arising, in that regard, from the second subparagraph of Article 19(1) TEU, including those relating to independence, impartiality and the previous establishing by law of the courts and tribunals called up to interpret and apply EU law.
