Law/Patents
German term or phrase: Rn.
OLG ruling:
"Nach ständiger Rechtsprechung des EuGH haben die Gerichte der Mitgliedsstaaten der EU nach dem in Art. 5 EGV (nun Art. 10 EGV) ausgesprochenen Grundsatz der Mitwirkungspflicht die Aufgabe, den Rechtsschutz zu gewährleisten, der sich für den Bürger aus der unmittelbaren Wirkung des Gemeinschaftsrechts ergibt (Klein in Handkommentar zum EUV/EGV, Rn. 25 zu Art. 5)."

Rn. = Randnummer
Explanation:
To facilitate the orientation in legal commentary books (like Klein - who was, by the way, one of my teachers at the university), there are running numbers on the border next to the beginning of each paragraph. I would translate it as "index number", or "running number"
