Uno de sus aspectos mis interesantes es la interpretaci6n del concepto europeo de materia civil y mercantil del Reglamento Bruselas I bis. Un concepto que lejos de ser pacifico ha generado numerosas cuestiones de tipo prejudicial al Tribunal de Justicia de la Uni6n Europea por parte de tribunales y autoridades de los Estados miembros desde los origenes de este (i.e.: Convenio de Bruselas de 1968) en todos instrumentos del DIPr patrimonial europeo. La materia objeto del litigio depende de ser caracterizada como materia civil y mercantil para entender que tiene cabida en el imbito material del Reglamento Bruselas I bis. Para ello, los tribunales tienen que considerar dos elementos clave que el TJUE ha ofrecido en esta juris- prudencia sobre el concepto materia civil y mercantil y que en este asunto, se vuelven a traer a colaci6n. De otra parte, en relaci6n con el Derecho derivado de consumo, siendo parte de su contenido la regulaci6n de las prdcticas comerciales desleales contra los consumidores, el asunto Movic BV, tambi6n se hace eco de aspectos controvertidos c6mo son es la naturaleza de las acciones transfronterizas de cesaci6n atendiendo al complejo entramado y relaci6n de normas de este acquis communautaire. Palabras clave: materia civil y mercantil; prdcticas comerciales desleales; prdcticas de mer- cado; Business to consumer (B2C); Reglamento Bruselas I bis; locus standi; iure imperii; acciones de cesaci6n; multas coercitivas; asociaciones de consumidores; intereses colectivos; autoridad; Directiva 29/2005; Directiva 22/2009 Abstract: Movic BV case before the CJEU is a quite interesting preliminary ruling with regard to the European Private international law (EPIL) as well as to the unfair commercial practices and consu- mer law of the EU substantive law on the subject. One of the most remarkable aspects concerning the EPIL is the analysis that the CJEU made of the far from being pacific autonomous concept, -civil and commercial matters-, of the Brussels I bis Regulation. An autonomous concept which has generated since the origin of the Brussels I bis regulation (i.e.: 1968 Brussels Convention), a wide array of prelimi- nary rulings on its interpretation. Besides, the CJEU analysed the material scope and the active or passi- ve standing of the parties to bring cross border actions before the Courts, by means of the assessment of the legal relationship given by the subject matter of the action.
