Pleas in law and main arguments

The appeal is against the judgment of the Civil Service Tribunal of 30 November 2009 in Case F-17/09 Meister v OHIM by which the appellant’s action was dismissed as manifestly inadmissible.

In support of his appeal, the appellant claims that the action at first instance was necessary on the ground that the facts are directly materially connected with the subject-matter of the previous Joined Cases F-138/06 and F-37/08, which at the time the action was brought had not been decided. The appellant claims that the dismissal from the outset of Case F-17/09 as inadmissible without an oral hearing infringes the guarantee of the right to be heard in Article 6 ECHR. Furthermore, the appellant complains that the Civil Service Tribunal dismissed its request for a stay of proceedings in view of an appeal brought against the judgment in Case F-37/08. Finally, it complains that the court of first instance’s assessment of the subject-matter was incomplete an incorrect in law.
