EU General Court rejects Latombe challenge to EU‑US data transfer framework

French MP Philippe Latombe filed an action for annulment of the Transatlantic Data Protection Framework before the EU General Court. The General Court dismissed the narrow challenge, finding it unconvincing. The decision leaves the agreement in place pending possible appeal to the CJEU.

Why it matters: The ruling maintains the EU‑US data transfer framework despite prior CJEU findings, affecting cross‑border data flows and legal certainty.
