   In Case E-10/04 between Paolo Piazza and Paul Schurte AG — REQUEST to the Court by Fürstliches Landgericht (Princely Court of Justice), concerning free movement of services and capital within the EEA, the Court, composed of Carl Baudenbacher, President, Per Tresselt and Thorgeir Örlygsson (Judge-Rapporteur), Judges, gave judgment on 1 July 2005, the operative part of which is as follows:
   A national provision, which excludes all means of security for costs in court proceedings, originating in other Contracting Parties, violates Article 40 EEA and cannot be justified on grounds of public policy in order to ensure the good functioning of the civil justice system.
