You read about an case at the European Court of Justice, you have the case reference but Google is no help. This explains it all:
http://curia.europa.eu/jurisp/cgi-bin/form.pl?lang=En&Submit=Submit&numaff=C-278/08
You just have to replace C-278/08 in the URI by the case number you are looking for.
Interesting link, although if you’ve got the case number it’s also easy to go to the Court’s website and put the number into the search.🙂
