Wait, how is this a “top court” if the decision is still appealable? Seems like a clickbait headline to me.

It’s not always true that appeals must go to some “higher court”. In some countries appeals may end up before the same judge, or another judge from the same court.

Okay, but (as per the article) the allegedly-“top” court that made the ruling, the European Union’s General Court (EGC), is not the same as the court that the lawsuit would be appealed to, the European Court of Justice (ECJ). How can the EGC be the “top” court if the ECJ is above it?
