Wanneer de vorderingen in dezelfde lidstaat worden ingesteld, moeten de middelen daartoe worden gezocht in de nationale procedurevoorschriften, die door de onderhavige verordening onverlet worden gelaten, terwijl het, wanneer de vorderingen in verschillende lidstaten worden ingesteld, nuttig lijkt zich te laten leiden door de bepalingen over aanhangigheid en samenhang in Verordening (EU) nr. 1215/2012.
For this purpose, when the actions are brought in the same Member State, the way in which this is to be achieved is a matter for national procedural rules, which are not prejudiced by this Regulation, whilst when the actions are brought in different Member States, provisions modelled on the rules on lis pendens and related actions of Regulation (EU) No 1215/2012 appear appropriate.
