Case Summary

The European Court of Justice ruled that Hungary's anti-LGBTQ legislation violates European law. The legislation prohibited or restricted access to LGBTQ content, which stigmatized and marginalized gay and trans people. The European Commission, 16 member states, and the European Parliament took Hungary to the European Court of Justice over the 2021 law, which has been billed as the largest human rights case in the bloc's history.
