Judgment of the Court (Third Chamber) of 12 June 2014 (request for a preliminary ruling from the Bundesgerichtshof — Germany) — Digibet Ltd, Gert Albers v Westdeutsche Lotterie GmbH & Co. OHG
(Case C-156/13) (1)

((Request for a preliminary ruling - Freedom to provide services - Article 56 TFEU - Betting and gaming - Federal legislation banning games of chance via the internet which was not applied for a limited period in a federal entity of a Member State - Consistency - Proportionality))
2014/C 282/16
Language of the case: German

Referring court

Bundesgerichtshof

Parties to the main proceedings


Applicants: Digibet Ltd, Gert Albers

Defendant: Westdeutsche Lotterie GmbH & Co. OHG

Operative part of the judgment

Article 56 TFEU must be interpreted as meaning that it does not preclude legislation common to the majority of the federal entities of a Member State having a federal structure which prohibits, in principle, the organisation and facilitation of games of chance via the internet, where, for a limited period, a single federal entity has maintained in force more liberal legislation coexisting with the restrictive legislation of the other federal entities, provided that such legislation is able to satisfy the conditions of proportionality laid down by the case-law of the Court, which is for the national court to ascertain.

Operative part of the judgment

Article 7 of Directive 2003/88/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 4 November 2003 concerning certain aspects of the organisation of working time must be interpreted as precluding national legislation or practice, such as those at issue in the main proceedings, which provide that the entitlement to paid annual leave is lost without conferring entitlement to an allowance in lieu of leave outstanding, where the employment relationship is terminated by the death of the worker. Receipt of such an allowance is not to be dependent on a prior application by the interested party.
