Spanish term or phrase: Sentence
Sobre la admisibilidad de restricciones en el ámbito de los juegos de azar y las apuestas se pronunció el Tribunal de Justicia de las Comunidades Europeas (TJCE) en sus sentencias Placánica y Gambelli.

Slightly confused by this sentence - does it make sence in Spanish?

What I have so far:

The Court of Justice of European Communities issued its Placanica and Gambelli rulings on the admissibility of restrictions imposed on games of chance and Internet betting.

Or does it mean that the admissibility of restrictions imposed on games of chance and Internet betting was dealt with by the The Court of Justice of European Communities in its Placanica and Gambelli rulings'??

Thank you :)

ruling by ECJ in European Court of Justice in the Placanica and Gambelli cases


Explanation:
The explanation is found in sites written in English commenting rules on gambling:
Since the Placanica ruling just over a week ago the courts in Italy have been busy. ... exactly as happened with the Placanica and Gambelli cases. ...
www.gamblingcompliance.com/node/7091

Although the ruling in Placanica specifically covers the prohibitions against corporate licensing in place in Italy, the arguments in Placanica and Gambelli when read together make clear that sneaky attempts by member states to circumvent the free movement of services to protect local favorites will not be tolerated.
