The main idea here is how Brussels Ibis handles where you sue, focusing on the default rule and its related provisions. Article 4 establishes the ordinary rule that a defendant should be sued in the courts of the member state where they are domiciled. That domicile-based approach is the backbone of ordinary jurisdiction. Article 7 adds pathways within that same framework by spelling out specific situations where jurisdiction can be exercised in ways tied to the contract or the place of performance, rather than strictly where the defendant is domiciled. Put together, these articles define the standard route for bringing proceedings and the customary exceptions within the same ordinary-jurisdiction system, rather than creating a separate topic like choice of law, consumer-specific jurisdiction, or arbitration.
