Brussels takes Spain to the CJEU for not applying EU mortgage law For failing to incorporate European legislation into its legislation

The European Commission (EC) today decided to bring Spain, as well as Croatia, Cyprus and Portugal, before the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) for failing to incorporate "European" mortgage legislation into their legislation.

The countries had until March 21, 2016 to transpose the law, said in a statement the community executive, who had already formally asked these countries in 2015 to implement the directive.
The aim of the directive is "to create a mortgage-credit market across the Union with a high level of consumer protection," the Commission said.

According to the Executive, the non-application of European law in the Member States means that the consumers of those countries do not have the protection granted when they subscribe their mortgage loans or when they experience difficulties to reimburse them.

It deprives consumers of advantages
Without the directive, adopted on 4 February 2014, credit intermediaries also can not have a passport for their business activities, which "deprives consumers in Croatia, Cyprus, Portugal and Spain of potentially more advantageous credit offers Of lenders from other Member States, "Brussels said.

The Executive said that this situation "hinders competition, limits the choice and leads to higher prices." The standard introduces the European Standardized Information Sheet (FEIN), which seeks to enable borrowers to better understand the risks inherent in their mortgage contract, measures to assess the creditworthiness of mortgage applicants, and principles for authorizing and registering credit intermediaries. credit.

It also has provisions for early repayment, foreign currency loans, tied sales practices, financial education, property valuation, delays and foreclosure.

In addition to 2015, the Commission already asked Spain in May and November last year to transpose the directive into national legislation.

Trump se plantea disolver la corte que bloqueó tres de sus decretos

El presidente de Estados Unidos opina que el tribunal del 9.º Circuito de San Francisco está sesgado contra él y sus políticas y dice que tiene un récord de anulaciones "terrible".

Tras la última derogación de una orden ejecutiva de Donald Trump por parte de una corte distrital de la ciudad de San Francisco, el mandatario expresó su desaprobación por la práctica de acudir a esta instancia judicial para impedir el cumplimiento de sus decretos. 

"Siendo nuestro país muy grande y con muchas opciones, ¿se da cuenta alguien que tanto la causa de la prohibición [de entrada a personas provenientes de varios países de Oriente Medio] como ahora la de las 'ciudades santuario' son traídas todas al 9.º Circuito, que tiene un récord de anulaciones terrible (cerca del 80%)?", se preguntó, indignado, Trump. ¡A eso se le solía llamar un 'juez de conveniencia'!", criticó el mandatario, cuyas palabras han sido recogidas por la revista 'Politico'.

La práctica de los opositores a las políticas de la Casa Blanca de acogerse a la jurisdicción más cómoda para ellos, con más garantía de una decisión favorable ya ha propiciado que "haya muchas personas que quieren deshacerse del 9.º Circuito", ha advertido Trump.

Por esta razón, el mandatario está "definitivamente" considerando las propuestas para disolver este tribunal de tres jueces "no electos" que está paralizando las principales iniciativas del poder Ejecutivo.

El 25 de marzo, esta corte suspendió de manera preliminar la orden ejecutiva de Donald Trump, firmada hace dos meses, que congelaba la financiación federal de aquellas ciudades que no cumplieran las leyes federales de inmigración.

La orden iba dirigida contra las llamadas ciudades santuario, que se niegan a entregar a las autoridades federales a los ciudadanos indocumentados que residen en su jurisdicción. Sin embargo, el tribunal californiano dictaminó que el decreto presidencial violaba la Constitución de EE.UU.

El malestar de la Casa Blanca fue corroborada por su servicio de prensa, que difundió un comunicado al respecto en el que sostiene que "este caso es un ejemplo más de la extralimitación de atribuciones" de los jueces del tribunal de San Francisco. Según este documento, el fallo "socava la confianza" en el sistema legal de Estados Unidos.

Trump seeks to dissolve the court that blocked three of its decrees

Trump seeks to dissolve the court that blocked three of its decrees



The president of the United States thinks that the 9th Circuit Court of San Francisco is biased against him and his policies and says he has a record of "terrible" annulments.

Following the final repeal of an executive order of Donald Trump by a district court in the city of San Francisco, the president expressed his disapproval of the practice of appealing to this court to prevent compliance with its decrees.

"Being our country very large and with many options, does anyone realize that both the cause of the prohibition [of entry to people from various countries in the Middle East] and now that of the 'sanctuary cities' are all brought to 9 . Circuit, which has a record of terrible cancellations (about 80%)? "He asked, indignantly, Trump. That was what he used to call a 'judge of convenience'! "Criticized the president, whose words have been collected by the magazine 'Politico'.

The practice of opponents of White House policies to avail themselves of the most comfortable jurisdiction for them, with more assurance of a favorable decision has already led to "there are many people who want to get rid of the 9th Circuit," warned Trump .

For this reason, the president is "definitely" considering proposals to dissolve this court of three "unelected" judges that is paralyzing the main initiatives of the Executive.

On March 25, this court first suspended the executive order of Donald Trump, signed two months ago, which froze federal funding for cities that did not comply with federal immigration laws.

The order was directed against so-called sanctuary cities, which refuse to hand over to the federal authorities undocumented citizens residing in their jurisdiction. However, the California court ruled that the presidential decree violated the US Constitution.

The White House discomfort was corroborated by its press service, which issued a statement in which it maintains that "this case is one more example of the overreaching of powers" of the judges of the court of San Francisco. According to this document, the ruling "undermines confidence" in the legal system of the United States.

Bruselas lleva a España al TJUE por no aplicar la normativa UE sobre hipotecas

Bruselas lleva a España al TJUE por no aplicar la normativa UE sobre hipotecas Por no haber incorporado en su legislación la normativa europea

eleconomista

La Comisión Europea (CE) decidió hoy llevar a España, así como a Croacia, Chipre y Portugal, ante el Tribunal de Justicia de la Unión Europea (TJUE) por no haber incorporado "completamente" en su legislación la normativa europea sobre créditos hipotecarios.

Los países tenían de plazo hasta el 21 de marzo de 2016 para trasponer la ley, precisó en un comunicado el Ejecutivo comunitario, que ya había pedido formalmente a estos países en 2015 que implementasen la directiva.

El objetivo de la directiva es "crear un mercado de crédito hipotecario en toda la Unión con un nivel elevado de protección de los consumidores", indicó la Comisión.

Según el Ejecutivo, la no aplicación de la ley europea en los Estados miembros da lugar a que los consumidores de esos países no dispongan de la protección que la misma otorga cuando suscriben sus préstamos hipotecarios o cuando experimentan dificultades para reembolsarlos.

Priva a los consumidores de ventajas

Sin la directiva, adoptada el 4 de febrero de 2014, los intermediarios de crédito tampoco pueden contar con un pasaporte para sus actividades comerciales, lo cual "priva a los consumidores de Croacia, Chipre, Portugal y España de ofertas de crédito potencialmente más ventajosas procedentes de prestamistas de otros Estados miembros", explicó Bruselas.

El Ejecutivo aseguró que esa situación "dificulta la competencia, limita las posibilidades de elección y lleva a unos precios más altos". La norma introduce la Ficha Europea de Información Normalizada (FEIN), que busca permitir a los prestatarios comprender mejor los riesgos inherentes a su contrato hipotecario, medidas para evaluar la solvencia de los solicitantes de una hipoteca y principios para autorizar y registrar a los intermediarios de crédito.

Asimismo, posee disposiciones relativas al reembolso anticipado, los préstamos suscritos en moneda extranjera, las prácticas de venta vinculada, la educación financiera, la tasación de la propiedad, las demoras y la ejecución hipotecaria.

Además de en 2015, la Comisión ya pidió a España en mayo y noviembre del año pasado trasponer la directiva a la legislación nacional.
