Judgment of 5 Oct 2006law://eu/cjeu/2005/c-232-05/para_53@2026-11-10

53It follows that the procedure provided for by national law in the present case does not fulfil the conditions laid down in Article 14(3) of Regulation No 659/1999. The French rule providing for the suspensory effect of actions brought against demands for payment should therefore have been left unapplied.
