2010/C 51/10
Language of the case: Spanish
Applicant: Eva Martín Martín
Defendant: EDP Editores SL
Reference for a preliminary ruling — Audiencia Provincial de Salamanca — Interpretation of Article 4 of Council Directive 85/577/EEC of 20 December 1985 to protect the consumer in respect of contracts negotiated away from business premises (OJ 1985 L 372, p. 31) — Articles 3 EC, 95 EC and 153 EC — Article 38 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights — Right of renunciation — Obligation on the trader to supply certain information — Consumer protection measures in case of non-performance — Nullity of contract and jurisdiction of national court
Article 4 of Council Directive 85/577/EEC of 20 December 1985 to protect the consumer in respect of contracts negotiated away from business premises does not preclude a national court from declaring, of its own motion, that a contract falling within the scope of that directive is void on the ground that the consumer was not informed of his right of cancellation, even though the consumer at no stage pleaded that the contract was void before the competent national courts.
