Judgment_paragraph 53 · Vicente v Delia (C-335/21)

53While the Court has already defined, in a number of respects and taking account of the requirements of Articles 6(1) and 7(1) of Directive 93/13, the way in which national courts must ensure that the rights which consumers derive from that directive are protected, the fact remains that, in principle, EU law does not harmonise the procedures applicable to examining whether a contractual term is unfair and that those procedures accordingly fall within the domestic legal system of the Member States (judgment of 26 June 2019, Addiko Bank, C‑407/18, EU:C:2019:537, paragraph 45). That is so in the case in the main proceedings as regards the procedural rules under Spanish law governing the procedure for recovery of lawyers’ fees which, in the absence of harmonisation, is a matter for the legal order of that Member State.
