Description

The Curia was of the opinion that the former Code of Civil Procedure’s rules excluding the possibility of requesting the judicial review of the impugned court ruling had not rendered the exercise of the defendants’ rights originating from Community law impossible or excessively difficult, hence, their right to effective judicial protection and to an effective remedy had not been violated. According to the Curia, part of the European Union provisions relevant to the proceedings and referred to in the defendants’ petition for judicial review has already been interpreted by the European Court of Justice, while the correct application of another part of such provisions – in light of the foregoing – was so obvious as to leave no scope for any reasonable doubt. Thus, the Curia was not under the obligation to make a reference for a preliminary ruling.
