Sąd Rejonowy Katowice – Zachód w Katowicach
Parties to the main proceedings
Applicant: Skarb Państwa – Dyrektor Okręgowego Urzędu Miar w K.
Defendant: Z. sp.j.
Operative part of the judgment
Article 6(1) of Directive 2011/7/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16 February 2011 on combating late payment in commercial transactions
must be interpreted as precluding a practice by the national courts which consists in dismissing actions seeking to obtain the fixed minimum sum by way of compensation for recovery costs provided for in that provision, on the ground that the delay by the debtor in making payment is negligible or that the amount of the claim concerned by the delay by the debtor in making payment is small.
