44Thus, the Court held, in essence, in paragraphs 15 to 19 of the judgment of 3 June 1992, Paletta (C‑45/90, EU:C:1992:236), as regards German legislation predating the German Law on Continued Remuneration, that such continued remuneration benefits in the event of illness satisfy the two conditions set out in paragraph 39 of the present judgment and must, therefore, be regarded as ‘sickness benefits’ within the meaning of Article 4(1) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71 of 14 June 1971 on the application of social security schemes to employed persons, to self-employed persons and to members of their families moving within the Community, in the version amended and updated by Council Regulation (EC) No 118/97 of 2 December 1996 (OJ 1997 L 28, p. 1), a provision succeeded by Article 3(1)(a) of Regulation No 883/2004.
