Referring court
Juzgado de Primera Instancia No4 de Palma de Mallorca
Parties to the main proceedings
Applicant: Barclays Bank SA
Defendant: Sara Sánchez García, Alejandro Chacón Barrera
Re:
Request for a preliminary ruling — Juzgado de Primera Instancia de Palma de Mallorca — Interpretation of Council Directive 93/13/EEC of 5 April 1993 on unfair terms in consumer contracts (OJ 1993 L 95, p. 29) — Consumer protection in relation to mortgage loans — Balance in the parties’ contractual rights and obligations — Principle of consumer protection — National civil procedure rules applicable to the procedure for enforcing a mortgage
Operative part of the judgment
Council Directive 93/13/EEC of 5 April 1993 on unfair terms in consumer contracts and the principles of EU law relating to consumer protection and a balance in the parties’ rights and obligations must be interpreted as meaning that statutory and regulatory provisions of a Member State, such as those at issue in the main proceedings, are excluded from their scope, when there is no contractual term altering the effect or ambit of those provisions.
