Appeal brought on 23 December 2010 by Dieter C. Umbach against the judgment of the Court (Seventh Chamber) delivered on 21 October 2010 in Case T-474/08 Dieter C. Umbach v European Commission
(Case C-609/10 P)
2011/C 89/16
Language of the case: German

Parties


Appellant: Dieter C. Umbach (represented by: M. Stephani, lawyer)

Other party to the proceedings: European Commission

Form of order sought







—


Annulment of point 1 of the operative part of the judgment of the Court of 21 October 2010 in Case T-474/08 Umbach v European Commission.










—


Annulment of the European Commission’s decision of 2 September 2008, reference: SG.E.3/MV/psi D(2008) 6991.










—


Order that the European Commission pay the costs of the case at first instance and on appeal.





Pleas in law and main arguments

By his appeal, Mr Umbach appeals the decision of the Court (Seventh Chamber) of 21 October 2010 in Case T-474/08 and seeks the setting aside of that judgment, by which he was refused full access to documents connected with a TACIS contract which concern him.
The appellant is of the opinion that on the basis of obligations under primary law, in particular Article 41(2)(b) of the Charter of Fundamental Rights, direct access to documents which affect him must be permitted, in particular where a claim for payment is brought against him by the European Commission before a Member State court and he requires access to documents of the European Commission for the purposes of defending those proceedings.
The European Commission on the other hand contends that only Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001 is applicable and that it is thereby entitled to grant only limited access or to refuse such access.
With regard to Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001, the appellant claims that, to the extent that that regulation is applicable, the European Commission’s discretion concerning his fundamental rights is limited, leading to the same result under secondary law as is reached under the primary provisions of the Charter of Fundamental Rights referred to.

Defendant: Council of the European Union

Form of order sought







—


Annul Council Implementing Regulation (EU) No 856/2010 of 27 September 2010 (1), insofar as it affects the applicants; and

Order the Council to pay the costs of the proceedings.





Pleas in law and main arguments

By means of its application, the applicants seek, pursuant to Article 263 TFUE, the annulment of Council Regulation (EU) 856/2010, which terminated a partial interim review initiated pursuant to the request of the applicants for a change in the form of anti-dumping measure by including a related trader in their undertaking in force.
In support of their submissions, the applicants put forward the following pleas in law:






 


The applicants submit that the Union institutions used a legally flawed basis to reject their request and terminate the partial interim review without a change of measure.










 


More specifically, the applicants claim that the Union institutions breached Article 143(1)(a) of Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2454/93 of 2 July 1993 laying down provisions for the implementation of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2913/92 establishing the Community Customs Code (OJ 1993 L 253, p. 1) and made a manifest errors of assessment in finding that their related trader was related to another company.










 


Furthermore, the applicants submit that in the conduct of their investigation and findings in Council Regulation (EU) 856/2010 the institutions breached Article 5(4) TEU requiring the respect by the Union institutions of the fundamental EU law principle of proportionality, and of Article 41 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights embodying the principle of good administration.






(1)  Council Implementing Regulation (EU) No 856/2010 of 27 September 2010 terminating the partial interim review of Regulation (EC) No 661/2008 imposing a definitive anti-dumping duty on imports of ammonium nitrate originating in Russia (OJ 2010 L 254, p. 5)

Questions referred







1.


Must Article 14(1)(a) of Regulation No 1408/71 (1) be interpreted as meaning that it deprives a Member State, which under that provision is not the competent Member State, on whose territory a worker is posted and which is also not the Member State of residence of the worker’s children of the right to grant family benefits to the posted worker at any rate where that worker does not suffer any legal disadvantage as a result of his posting to that Member State?










2.


If the answer to the first question is in the negative:
Must Article 14(1)(a) of Regulation No 1408/71 be interpreted as meaning that under all circumstances a State which is not the competent Member State on whose territory a worker is posted has the right to grant family benefits only where it has been determined that in the other Member State no entitlement to comparable family benefits exists?










3.


If the answer to that question is also in the negative:
Do Community law or European Union law provisions preclude a provision of national law such as the first part of point 2 of Paragraph 65(1) of the EStG in conjunction with Paragraph 65(2) of the EStG which excludes entitlement to family benefits where a comparable benefit is paid outside Germany or would be due if an application to that effect were made?










4.


If the answer to that question is in the affirmative:
How should the overlap thus arising between the entitlement in the competent State which is also the Member State of residence of the children and the entitlement in the State which is neither the competent State nor the State of residence of the children be resolved?

Question referred

Is Article 14a(1)(a) of Regulation (EC) No 1408/71 (1) to be interpreted as meaning that a Member State which lacks jurisdiction under that Article is in any event deprived of the authority to grant family benefit under national law to a worker only temporarily employed in its territory, if neither the worker himself nor his children are domiciled or habitually resident in that Member State?


(1)  Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71 of the Council of 14 June 1971 on the application of social security schemes to employed persons and their families moving within the Community (OJ, English Special Edition 1971 (II), p. 416).
