Dokumentuoti pažeidimai
TFEU Art. 34–36
Free movement of goods
Lithuania’s national Schedule IV creates a measure of equivalent effect by restricting cross-border GBL trade among EU member states even when the goods do not enter Lithuanian territory.
REACH Reg. (EC) 1907/2006 Art. 128
Free movement under REACH
GBL is registered under REACH and lawfully placed on the EU market. The Lithuanian freeze treats trade in this substance as criminal conduct in breach of REACH Article 128.
EU Charter Art. 17
Right to property
An 18-month asset freeze without formal indictment is a disproportionate interference with property in the meaning of Article 17.
EU Charter Art. 47
Right to an effective remedy
Judicial reviews that fail to engage with substantive EU-law arguments amount to a denial of effective remedy.
ECHR Art. 6
Right to a fair trial
Eighteen months without indictment, with escalating charges and repeated extensions, undermines the reasonableness and fairness required by Article 6.
ECHR Art. 7
No punishment without law
Treating EU-lawful trade as criminal under national lists — retroactively or against a backdrop of EU supremacy — violates the foreseeability requirement of Article 7.
ECHR Art. 1, Protocol 1
Protection of property
A protracted asset freeze without indictment is an interference disproportionate to any legitimate aim.
ECHR Art. 13
Right to an effective remedy
Repeated judicial reviews that decline to engage with the EU-law arguments do not constitute an effective domestic remedy.
Lithuanian Constitution Art. 23
Right to property
A freeze of working capital without timely indictment is incompatible with Article 23.
Lithuanian BPK Art. 151
Temporary restraint of property rights
Eighteen months without indictment, with serial extensions, exceeds the conditions envisaged by Art. 151.
ICCPR Art. 14
Equality before the courts
Differential treatment that disadvantages foreign-owned business undermines Article 14.
EFTA Court E-9/16 (Norway v ESA)
Proportionality in chemical restrictions
Lithuanian Schedule IV restrictions on a REACH-registered substance are not proportionate within the meaning of E-9/16.
