Legal Terms - Brussels Convention
a 1968 international agreement that establishes which courts will have jurisdiction over issues involving other countries. In general, contracts that specify that any disputes will be heard by the courts of a certain nation will be honored. In cases where the parties have not selected a forum for their disputes, the Convention further specifies guidelines. The Convention is individually ratified by numerous EU states; the UK ratified it in 1978 and made it a national law in 1982.
