Regulation, a Community design court of another Member
State has jurisdiction as to the substance of the matter.
- In proceedings relating to provisional measures, including
protective measures, a plea otherwise than by way of counter

ment pursuant to Title III of the Convention on Jurisdiction
and Enforcement, are applicable in the territory of any Member
State. No other court shall have such jurisdiction.
