The principle of lis alibi pendens attempts to solve the issue of potentially contradictory judgments in different jurisdictions.
According to this principle, if there is already #litigation pending between the same parties in respect of the same subject matter in another jurisdiction may give the defendant a ground on which s/he can obtain a stay of proceedings
The GDPR also foresees the possibility of contradictory judgments and includes a provision that regulates the potential conflict (art. 81 #GDPR).
Where a court becomes aware that a related proceeding pends in another court in a different MS, the former may suspend (stay) or consolidate (merge) the proceedings.
By related proceedings is meant same subject matter and same (private) controller or processor
