Winner Wetten GmbH v Bürgermeisterin der Stadt Bergheim - national court must not apply domestic law if it is contrary to EC law
26/01/10
A national court must not allow a rule of domestic law contrary to a directly applicable Community rule to continue to be applied. To do so would impair the effective and uniform application of Community law and, therefore, the very "principle of primacy" of that law.
