On a recent Court Decission dated July 4th, our Supreme Court has set that Court costs in cases where floor clause ( it can be extended to any abusive clause, in my opinion)  is being discussed, being won by the consumer, need to always have impositon of legal costs of all instances against  Bank attached.

Principles behind this decission are:

(1) Principle for avoiding of any link of consumer to abusive clauses

(2) Principle of effectiveness of European Union Law

As a way to refrain Banks to litigate and extenuate consumers resources on the way.

Wise, balanced, right
