European Union Court of Justice Series: Interview with Advocate General Laila Medina

Episode #17 of the Borderlines CJEU Series features CJEU Advocate General Laila Medina interviewed by Professor Mark Pollack (Temple University). Before her appointment to the European Union Court of Justice in 2021, Advocate General Medina served in multifaceted academic and government roles and represented Latvia at the EU, OECD, and UN levels. In this interview, she discusses Latvia’s journey to join the EU in 2004, writing opinions for the Court to provoke debate and innovate, and her commitment to judicial independence and the value of oral hearings for discovering new perspectives. The podcast reviews Advocate General Medina’s opinions in complex cases concerning COVID-related package travel disputes, data privacy, fundamental rights, EU citizenship, free movement, and environmental access-to-justice, and concludes with thoughts on the Court’s role as a locus for legal inspiration worldwide.
