Language of the case: Polish

Referring court

Parties to the main proceedings

Applicant: R.S.

Other parties: G. S.A., P.C., acting as trustee in bankruptcy of R.S. and of M.S., M.K., acting as liquidator of G. S.A., J.J., M.G.

Operative part of the judgment

Article 6(1) and Article 7(1) of Council Directive 93/13/EEC of 5 April 1993 on unfair terms in consumer contracts, read in the light of the principle of effectiveness,

must be interpreted as precluding national legislation which provides that, in insolvency proceedings relating to natural persons, once the list of claims has been approved by a judicial authority, which has not examined the possible unfairness of the terms of the contract concerned, and proceedings have been commenced before the bankruptcy court, the latter is bound by that list, with the effect that it can neither assess the unfairness of terms contained in a loan agreement on which a claim included on that list is based nor amend that list, but must stay the proceedings and refer the matter of the possible unfairness of those terms to the judicial authority in question.

Article 6(1) and Article 7(1) of Directive 93/13, read in the light of the principle of effectiveness,

must be interpreted as precluding national legislation which, in the context of insolvency proceedings relating to natural persons, does not provide that the bankruptcy court can order interim measures to regulate the situation of the bankrupt pending a decision concluding examination of the unfairness of the terms in a loan agreement, where that agreement has given rise to a claim included on the list of claims approved by a different judicial authority, which has not examined the possible unfairness of the terms of the contract concerned.
