Language of the case: Hungarian
Referring court
Szombathelyi Közigazgatási és Munkaügyi Bíróság
Parties to the main proceedings
Applicants:‘SEGRO’ Kft. (C-52/16), Günther Horváth (C-113/16)
Defendants: Vas Megyei Kormányhivatal Sárvári Járási Földhivatala (C-52/16), Vas Megyei Kormányhivatal (C-113/16)
Operative part of the judgment
Article 63 TFEU must be interpreted as precluding national legislation, such as that at issue in the main proceedings, under which rights of usufruct which have previously been created over agricultural land and the holders of which do not have the status of close relation of the owner of that land are extinguished by operation of law and are, consequently, deleted from the property registers.
