Judgment_paragraph 25 · Lidl & Companhia v Fazenda Pública (C-106/10)

25It follows that questions referred for a preliminary ruling concerning European Union law enjoy a presumption of relevance. The Court may refuse to rule on a question referred by a national court only where it is quite obvious that the interpretation of European Union law sought is unrelated to the actual facts of the main action or its purpose, where the problem is hypothetical, or where the Court does not have before it the factual or legal material necessary to give a useful answer to the questions submitted to it (Case C-225/09 Jakubowska [2011] ECR I-12329, paragraph 28 and case-law cited).
