Question juridique clé
Whether the civil proceedings should be stayed until the Federal Electricity Commission decides the tariff dispute.
Solution extraite
The stay was not justified because the commission proceedings had no suspensive effect and any later tariff reduction could be handled through restitution or compensation.
Motifs extraits
The refusal to stay did not cause irreparable legal harm; the commission had not ordered a reduction, provisional measures had been refused, and any future overpayment could be corrected under the electricity legislation.
