Abstract

This chapter explores the role of personal participation in civil proceedings imposing civil pecuniary penalties within the European judicial area. It also deals with the civil trial in absentia in order to determine whether a civil default judgment rendered in a EU Member State shall be considered, in itself, as a penalty against a defendant who deliberately fails to appear at the hearing.
