Legal Terms - Advocates General
Advocates-General are esteemed legal officials who provide assistance to the European Court of Justice in the process of rendering a verdict in the cases presented to it.
They possess distinct qualities of autonomy and objectivity. After the matter is heard, a non-binding "opinion" is delivered in open court. This opinion, although not legally binding, carries the same weight as a judge's viewpoint.
