Irrelevant, since
a) the EU is not a Common Law jurisdiction; and
b) the Commission can issue binding orders.

The closest analogue in Common Law countries would be a quasi-judicial
administrative law tribunal.

Ireland is trying to wiggle out of the binding order Apple's tax
obligations.


None of that makes "Slimer's" claims into truth.

What this boils down to is GREED. The EC/EU doesn't actually CARE about
this as a matter of principle: they care because they want the MONEY.
