Directive 98/5/EC — Access to the profession of lawyer — Monk who has obtained the professional qualification of lawyer in a Member State other than the host Member State — Article 3(2) — Condition requiring registration with the competent authority of the host Member State — Certificate attesting to registration with the competent authority of the home Member State — Refusal to register — Rules of professional conduct — Incompatibility of the status of monk with practice of the profession of lawyer. (Judgment of the ECJ –Grand Chamber- of the 7th of May 2019). (Judgment of the ECJ –Grand Chamber- of the 7th of May 2019). Article 3(2) of Directive 98/5/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 February 1998 to facilitate practice of the profession of lawyer on a permanent basis in a Member State other than that in which the qualification was obtained must be interpreted as precluding national legislation which, on account of the incompatibility under that legislation between the status of monk and practice of the profession of lawyer, prohibits a lawyer who has the status of monk, and who is registered as a lawyer with the competent authority of the home Member State, from registering with the competent authority of the host Member State in order to practice there under his home-country professional title.

3rd Section
Legislative nature of acts of the Permanent Holy Synod of Greece. Holy Monasteries are legal entities governed by public law that, under certain conditions, act as public authorities. Therefore, their organizational self-government is not absolute, but it is limited. Retroactivity of the power of the bishop and the Permanent Holy Synod to examine the Regulations of the Holy Monasteries.

Petition for the annulment of an environmental license on exploration drilling for bauxite in mountainous SAC and SPA areas.

Projects even within forests and wooded areas or areas of the NATURA network are permitted providing that they comply with the obligations laid down by the specific legislation on protected areas. Limited judicial control in applications of annulment. Infringement of the principle of sustainable development occurs when the damage to the environment caused by the project or activity is irreparable or manifestly disproportionate to the expected benefits.
