Reading time: 1 minute
Judge Eugene Regan has been nominated by Irish government ministers for reappointment to the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) for a further six-year term.
Judge Regan has served on the court since 2015 and became, in 2018, the first Irish judge ever to be elected president of a chamber.
The terms of office of 14 judges of the court will end on 6 October 2021. Judge Regan will be interviewed by an EU panel to establish his suitability for reappointment before a decision is made.
A graduate of University College Dublin, the University of Brussels and the King’s Inns, Judge Regan spent decades in practice as a barrister and a brief stint as a Senator prior to his appointment to the court.
