This article focuses on successful interim measures before the General Court and the European Court of Justice in the realm of international trade and restrictive measures. Pursuant to that procedure, a judge may suspend the operation of a contested act. While the conditions for an award of such measures are famously strict, recent case-law of the EU Courts has brought about a more flexible interpretation of those conditions. The article will assess whether that logic is tenable and can be extended to the area of EU trade and restrictive measures.
