Abstract
The article reviews the many legal rules in Germany on the enforcement of judgments in civil matters emanating from the member states of the European Union as well as from other states; it considers the relationship among these various rules and the parallelism of some of them. Insofar, the article is thought as a primer that seeks to bring some order to a system of rules that is no longer easy to survey, not, however, as an attempt to engage in a more detailed analysis of specific provisions. The remarks on the European enforcement order are equally applicable to the enforcement of judgments from all EU member states. Finally, the author comments on developments regarding important basics of the international, especially the European, law on enforcing judgments, with a special focus on the future of the exequatur decision and the public policy review by the enforcing state.
