The ECJ not only reviews the acts and omissions of the ECB, but is also competent to rule in actions brought by the ECB against a Community institution or a Member State for the purpose of protecting its prerogatives or against a Community institution because of the latter’s failure to act (Articles 230 and 232 respectively).
Le cas s’est présenté en 2003, lorsque la Cour de justice a déclaré nul et de nul effet le dispositif antifraude propre à la BCE et décidé que la BCE serait soumise à celui de la Communauté (cf. section 4.6).
