Operative part of the judgment
1.Article 4(c) of Directive 2004/48/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2004 on the enforcement of intellectual property rights must be interpreted as meaning that, in addition to the condition relating to the direct interest in the defence of the rights concerned, recognition of the status of intellectual property collective rights-management bodies to seek, in their own name, the application of the measures, procedures and remedies provided for in Chapter II of that directive is subject to the standing of those organisations to bring legal proceedings for the purposes of defending intellectual property rights, which may result from a specific provision to that effect or from general procedural rules.
2.Article 4(c) of Directive 2004/48 must be interpreted as meaning that, as EU law currently stands, Member States are not required to recognise that intellectual property collective rights-management bodies which are regularly recognised as having a right to represent holders of intellectual property rights have a direct interest in seeking, in their own name, the application of the measures, procedures and remedies provided for in Chapter II of that directive in the event that the existence of a direct interest in the defence of the rights concerned in respect of those bodies does not follow from the applicable national legislation.
