Request for a preliminary ruling from the Oberlandesgericht Düsseldorf (Germany) lodged on 27 December 2021 — Beverage City & Lifestyle GmbH and Others v Advance Magazine Publishers, Inc.
(Case C-832/21)
(2022/C 119/34)
Language of the case: German

Referring court

Oberlandesgericht Düsseldorf

Parties to the main proceedings


Defendants and appellants: Beverage City & Lifestyle GmbH, MJ, Beverage City Polska Sp.z.o.o., FE

Applicant and respondent: Advance Magazine Publishers, Inc.

Question referred

The Higher Regional Court, Düsseldorf, refers the following question to the Court of Justice of the European Union for a preliminary ruling concerning the interpretation of Article 122 of Regulation (EU) 2017/1001 (1) in conjunction with Article 8(1) of Regulation (EU) No 1215/2012. (2)

Are claims ‘so closely connected’ that it is expedient to hear and determine them together to prevent irreconcilable judgments, within the meaning of Article 8(1) of Regulation No 1215/2012, where, in infringement proceedings for infringement of an EU trade mark, the connection consists in the fact that the defendant domiciled in a Member State (here, Poland) supplied the goods which infringe an EU trade mark to a defendant domiciled in another Member State (here, Germany) whose legal representative, against whom infringement proceedings have also been brought, is the anchor defendant, if the parties are connected to each other only through the mere supply relationship beyond which there is no legal or factual connection?

Action brought on 27 December 2021 — NT v EMA
(Case T-806/21)
(2022/C 73/83)
Language of the case: French

Parties


Applicant: NT (represented by: N. de Montigny, lawyer)

Defendant: European Medicines Agency

Form of order sought

The applicant claims that the Court should:






—


annul the decision of 15 March 2021;










—


to the extent necessary, annul the decision of 30 September 2021;










—


order the defendant to pay compensation of EUR 2 500,00 for the non-material damage suffered by the applicant;










—


order the defendant to pay the costs.





Pleas in law and main arguments

In support of the action, the applicant relies on five pleas in law.






1.


First plea in law, alleging the legal inadequacy of the statement of reasons for the decision. In that regard, the applicant refers to a lack of a specific and thorough examination of the situation and contradictions in the findings that were submitted. In addition, she argues that the concept of ‘occupational disease’ was misinterpreted and that there was a manifest error of assessment.










2.


Second plea in law, alleging that no or incorrect information was provided by the Agency’s medical officer to the doctor appointed by the applicant and to the third doctor with respect to the classification of occupational disease within the meaning of the Staff Regulations of Officials.










3.


Third plea in law, alleging a procedural irregularity and the premature nature of the findings of the invalidity committee in that they are meant to take account of the stressful situation caused by work while the facts underlying that situation are currently subject to an administrative enquiry.










4.


Fourth plea in law, alleging breach of the applicant’s right to be heard by the authority empowered to conclude contracts before the adoption of the decision, and breach of the duty of care, of assistance and of good administration.










5.


Fifth plea in law, alleging maladministration in the treatment of the applicant’s request, involving harm to her that is assessed ex aequo et bono at EUR 2 500,00.
