    (Case C-561/21)

    (2023/C 15/23)

    Language of the case: Spanish

    Referring court

    Tribunal Supremo

    Parties to the main proceedings

    Appellants: GP and BG

    Respondent: Banco Santander, S. A.

    Questions referred

    1.

    Is it compatible with the principle of legal certainty to interpret Articles 6(1) and 7(1) of Council Directive 93/13/EEC of 5 April 1993 on unfair terms in consumer contracts (1) as meaning that the limitation period for an action to recover payments made pursuant to an unfair term does not begin to run until that term has been declared invalid by a final judgment?

    2.

    If such an interpretation is incompatible with the principle of legal certainty, do Articles 6(1) and 7(1) of Council Directive 93/13/EEC preclude an interpretation according to which the starting point of the limitation period is the date of the judgments of the Tribunal Supremo (Supreme Court) laying down case-law on the effects of restitution (judgments of 23 January 2019)?

    3.

    If such an interpretation is incompatible with Articles 6(1) and 7(1), do those articles preclude an interpretation according to which the starting point of the limitation period is the date of the judgments of the Court of Justice holding that an action for restitution may be subject to a limitation period (essentially, the judgment of 9 July 2020, Raiffeisen Bank SA, Joined Cases C-698/10 and 699/18, and the judgment of 16 July 2020, Caixabank SA, Joined Cases C-224/19 and C-259/19, which confirmed the former)?


    (1)  OJ 1993 L 95, p. 29.
