Until someone files a complaint at the same court.

Given that it's a Swedish law that only applies within Sweden, I wonder if the ECJ would take jurisdiction as there isn't really an EU element to it.

Does the ECJ only have jurisdiction over cases that cross national borders?

Sort of, in that the court's role is to be the authoritative interpreter of EU law, and EU law crosses national borders by definition.

But all domestic law in EU member states must comply with EU law, so the court can rule on domestic law insofar as it is to determine compatibility with EU law.

How does it address the issue that all laws can conceivably affect trade, and other activities, across borders, via sufficient degrees of separation?
