Irish judge Anthony Collins has been appointed as an Advocate-General of the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU).
Judge Collins was nominated by the Irish government earlier this summer to fill the vacancy created by its appointment of Advocate-General Gerard Hogan to the Irish Supreme Court.
A graduate of Trinity College Dublin (TCD) and the King’s Inns, Judge Collins called to the Bar in 1986 and became senior counsel in 2003. He was appointed as a judge of the General Court of the CJEU in September 2013.
He will serve as Advocate-General from 7 October 2021 to 6 October 2024 following the approval of his appointment by the European Council yesterday.
The appointing decision will enter into force on the day of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.
