(2017/C 151/51)
Language of the case: German
Applicant: CBA Spielapparate- und Restaurantbetriebs GmbH (Vienna, Austria) (represented by: A. Schuster, lawyer)
Defendant: European Commission
The applicant claims that the Court should:
—uphold the action for annulment and annul the contested decision;
—order the Commission to pay the costs of the proceedings.
By its present action, the applicant seeks the annulment of Commission Decision C (2017) 249 final of 13 January 2017 concerning the applicant’s confirmatory application for access to documents under Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001. (<a id="ntc1-C_2017151EN.01004001-E0001" href="#ntr1-C_2017151EN.01004001-E0001">1</a>)
In support of the action, the applicant relies on two pleas in law.
1.Fist plea in law: infringement of essential procedural requirements, in particular a failure to state reasons
2.Second plea in law: infringement of the law of the Treaties
The applicant submits that the exceptions provided for in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001 and applied by the Commission are unlawful, since they conflict with higher-ranking primary law, in particular with Articles 42 and 47 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union.
Furthermore, the primacy of application of higher-ranking primary law over conflicting secondary law also applies in EU law, with the result that, for this reason, too, the Commission should not have applied the exceptions provided for in Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1049/2001.
