I live in Holland but booked my ticket on the German www.emirates.com
EK is based in Dubai.
Where should I go to court?
The regulation states 75% of the ticket price; there is nothing in the regulation that states anything about it being price of sector / pro-rated etc

2. If an operating air carrier places a passenger in a class
lower than that for which the ticket was purchased, it shall
within seven days, by the means provided for in Article 7(3),
reimburse

(c) 75 % of the price of the ticket for all flights not falling
under (a) or (b), including flights between the European
territory of the Member States and the French overseas
departments.

Emirates almost certainly has a registered office in the Netherlands; initiate proceedings in the Netherlands against the Emirates company in that country. In your claim to Emirates, you could include the regulation wording so that the company is aware that you do know your rights; it may encourage them to play nicely
