Artikel 136 Europeiska unionens domstols prövning


Summary What does Article 136 of the MiCA regulation say?

This brief but significant article addresses the judicial oversight of EBA's enforcement decisions, specifically those involving fines, periodic penalty payments, and other administrative penalties or measures.

It establishes that the Court of Justice holds unlimited jurisdiction to review such decisions, and crucially, grants the Court the power not only to annul them but also to adjust the financial penalties imposed — either upward or downward.

This article sits within the broader enforcement framework and acts as a check on EBA's supervisory powers, which are set out in surrounding articles such as Articles 131 and 132.

Important points:

  • The Court of Justice has unlimited jurisdiction to review any EBA decision imposing a fine, periodic penalty payment, or other administrative measure under this Regulation.
  • The Court may annul, reduce, or increase any fine or periodic penalty payment — its review powers are not limited to simply upholding or striking down decisions.
  • This article applies specifically to EBA's enforcement decisions, making it a judicial counterbalance to EBA's sanctioning authority.

Springlex's summary of the article, a reading aid, not a substitute for the legal text.

Europeiska unionens domstol ska ha obegränsad behörighet att pröva beslut genom vilka EBA har ålagt sanktionsavgifter, viten eller administrativa sanktioner eller andra administrativa åtgärder i enlighet med denna förordning. Den får upphäva, sänka eller höja ålagda sanktionsavgifter eller viten.
