      Parties to the main proceedings
   
   
      Applicant: Sarah Nagy
   
      Defendant: Marcel Nagy
   
      Questions referred
   
   
               1.
            
            
               Are two proceedings brought ‘between the same parties’, within the meaning of Article 12 of Council Regulation (EC) No 4/2009 of 18 December 2008 on jurisdiction, applicable law, recognition and enforcement of decisions and cooperation in matters relating to maintenance obligations, (1) where in one set of proceedings the child makes a claim against the father for past and current maintenance, and the father, in divorce proceedings, seeks a determination of his maintenance obligation relating to that child and of payments to be made to the mother after the divorce?
            
         
               2.
            
            
               If the answer to that question is in the affirmative: Where, in one set of proceedings, the maintenance creditor makes a claim for current maintenance and, in another set of proceedings, the maintenance debtor seeks to have his obligation to pay current maintenance postponed to a later date, will the proceedings then involve ‘the same cause of action’, within the meaning of Article 12 of the regulation, from the later date?
