Appellant: Mariusz Pawlak
Respondent: Prezes Kasy Rolniczego Ubezpieczenia Społecznego
1.The first sentence of Article 7(1) of Directive 97/67/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 15 December 1997 on common rules for the development of the internal market of Community postal services and the improvement of quality of service, as amended by Directive 2008/6/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 February 2008, read in conjunction with Article 8 of Directive 97/67/EC, must be interpreted as precluding a rule of national law which recognises only the posting of a procedural document in a post office of the sole operator designated to provide the universal postal service as being equivalent to lodging a procedural document before the relevant court, without there being an objective justification based on grounds of public policy or public security.
2.A public authority, regarded as an emanation of a Member State, cannot rely on Directive 97/67, as amended by Directive 2008/6, as such, against an individual.
