Language of the case: German
Applicant: DEB Deutsche Energiehandels- und Beratungsgesellschaft mbH
Respondent: Bundesrepublik Deutschland
The following question is referred, pursuant to Article 234 EC, to the Court of Justice of the European Communities for a preliminary ruling:
In view of the fact that Member States may not, through the structuring of conditions under national law governing the award of damages and of the procedure for pursuing a claim seeking to establish State liability under Community law, make the award of compensation in accordance with the principles of State liability under Community law virtually impossible or excessively difficult, must there be reservations with regard to a national rule under which the pursuit of a claim before the courts is subject to the making of an advance payment in respect of costs, and a legal person, which is unable to make that advance payment, does not qualify for legal aid?
