Article 267 A provision of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (formerly the Treaty of Rome) entitling national courts to refer matters of EU law to the European Court of Justice for a determination. The case ultimately returns to the national court for a final judgment. Such a procedure is known as an Article 267 reference. Article 267 (formerly Article 234, originally Article 177) empowers the Court of Justice to decide such issues as how the Treaty should be interpreted and whether or not the European Commission or other bodies have acted properly.
