Applicant: Giorgos Michalias
Respondent: Christina A. Ioannou-Michalia
When Articles 2(1), 42 and 46 of Regulation (EC) No 1347/2000 are interpreted correctly and applied, do the courts of a Member State of the European Union (Cyprus) have jurisdiction in respect of:
(a)divorce proceedings begun by the husband in the courts of State X (Cyprus) in April 2003 after the regulation entered into force on 1 March 2001 but before State X (Cyprus) became a Member State on 1 May 2004 and
(b)divorce proceedings begun by the wife after 1 May 2004 in the courts of another Member State (the United Kingdom) which was a Member State throughout the relevant period,
if both spouses were permanently resident in State Y (the United Kingdom) throughout the relevant period
and both spouses were nationals of State X (Cyprus) throughout the relevant period?
