Abstract

On the two examples from the practice between years 2012-2013 is in the article demonstrated controversial access of administrative bodies in the Czech Republic, the general courtsand the Constitutional Court of the Czech Republic to their duties and the enforcement of EU law. By the description and analysis of the circumstances of these cases, the author points out the difficult issue of the impact of the preferential rights of EU compared to the national law of the Czech Republic and in fact also against broader national interests. Although theEU law has the right to operate widely and effectively in favor of the consumers, there are many power ways how to eliminate the impact of EU law to national law. It is difficult and challenging to face to these aproaches in practice and to achieve their elimination when they have support and sometimes probably a cause of hidden interests of courts and administrative bodies.
