Legal Terms - court of last resort
a court from which there can be no appeal at all. Although the *Court of Appeal may occasionally be designated by statute as the court of last resort, the *Supreme Court is typically the court of last resort under English law. Until December 31, 2020, when the post-Brexit *implementation period ended, cases that UK courts referred to the European Court of Justice (ECJ) could be heard there. The European Court of Justice (ECJ) has ongoing jurisdiction in many specialized areas and is empowered to rule on matters that are pending before it on the date the implementation period expires, as per the terms of the UK-EU *Withdrawal Agreement.
