Abstract

On the basis of its antecedents, the first preliminary ruling under the Convention issued by the ECtHR at the request of the French Court of Cassation is examined here in relation to the controversial issue of surrogacy and the resulting system of filiation, in this case with the mother principal. After a brief approximation to the answer given to the questions expressly raised, it is a question of recapitulating the meaning and scope of this novel way of preventive clarification of the conventional standard, without contradicting the presuposed requirements in the conventional system of protection of fundamental rights and freedoms by the instrumental principles of subsidiarity of the jurisdiction of the ECtHR and the national margin of appreciation.
