Prior notification of a concentration
(Case M.7696 — Lone Star/Balta)
Candidate case for simplified procedure
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2015/C 229/10)






1.


On 3 July 2015, the Commission received a notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1) by which the Lone Star Funds belonging to the Lone Star Group (‘Lone Star’, United States/Bermuda) acquire within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Merger Regulation control of the whole of the undertaking Balta Finance S.ár.l, the holding company of the Balta Group (‘Balta’, Luxembourg) by way of purchase of shares.










2.


The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:
—   for Lone Star: investment in real estate equity, credit and other financial assets,
—   for Balta: manufacturing and sale of textile floor coverings.










3.


On preliminary examination, the Commission finds that the notified transaction could fall within the scope of the Merger Regulation. However, the final decision on this point is reserved. Pursuant to the Commission Notice on a simplified procedure for treatment of certain concentrations under the Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (2) it should be noted that this case is a candidate for treatment under the procedure set out in this Notice.










4.


The Commission invites interested third parties to submit their possible observations on the proposed operation to the Commission.
Observations must reach the Commission not later than 10 days following the date of this publication. Observations can be sent to the Commission by fax (+32 22964301), by e-mail to COMP-MERGER-REGISTRY@ec.europa.eu or by post, under reference M.7696 — Lone Star/Balta, to the following address:

Appeal brought on 14 July 2015 by European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) against the judgment of the Civil Service Tribunal of 29 April 2015 in joined cases F-159/12 and F-161/12, CJ v ECDC

(Case T-395/15 P)
(2015/C 311/60)
Language of the case: English

Parties


Appellant: European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) (represented by: J. Mannheim and A. Daume, agents, D. Waelbroeck and A. Duron, lawyers)

Other party to the proceedings: CJ (Agios Stefanos, Greece)

Form of order sought by the appellant

The appellant claims that the Court should:






—


annul the judgment of the Civil Service Tribunal of 29/04/2015 in joined cases F-159/12 and F-161/12, in respect of the plea challenged in the appeal, and










—


to order the Respondent to pay the costs.





Pleas in law and main arguments

In support of the appeal, the Appellant relies on two pleas in law.






1.


First plea in law, alleging an error in law on behalf of the Civil Service Tribunal with regards to the scope of the right to be heard.






—


Without relying on any case-law nor providing specific reasoning, the Civil Service Tribunal adopted an extensive interpretation of the scope of the right to be heard, applicable not only to allegations made vis-à-vis an individual, but also to the consequences ascribed to the behavior of that individual. Besides, the approach taken by the Civil Service Tribunal as to the scope of the right to be heard is contradicted by its very findings in the contested judgment.














2.


Second plea in law, alleging an error of law on behalf of the Tribunal in the conclusion it reached further to the assessment as to whether in the absence of this alleged irregularity, the procedure might have led to a different result.






—


The Civil Service Tribunal having acknowledged that the relationship of trust between the Respondent and the Appellant was irreparably broken, the absence of the alleged irregularity would not have led to a different result.

Questions referred







1.


Is Article 13 of Directive 2004/48/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2004 on the enforcement of intellectual property rights (1) to be interpreted as meaning that the rightholder whose economic rights of copyright have been infringed may seek redress for the damage which it has incurred on the basis of general principles, or, without having to prove loss and the causal relationship between the event which infringed its rights and the loss, may seek payment of a sum of money corresponding to twice the amount of the appropriate fee, or, in the event of a culpable infringement, three times the amount of the appropriate fee, whereas Article 13 of Directive 2004/48 states that it is a judicial authority which must decide on damages by taking into account the factors listed in Article 13(1)(a), and only as an alternative in certain cases may set the damages as a lump sum, taking into consideration the elements listed in Article 13(1)(b) of that directive?










2.


Is the award, made at the request of a party, of damages as a pre-determined lump sum corresponding to twice or three times the amount of the appropriate fee permissible pursuant to Article 13 of the directive, regard being had to the fact that recital 26 of the preamble thereto states that it is not the aim of the directive to introduce punitive damages?
