Kingdom of Spain

Intervener at First Instance

Procedural Posture

Application for Interim Measures (appeal) / Order on Admissibility of Interim Relief

Legal Issues

  1. 1 Whether the application for interim measures seeking suspension of the effects of the General Court's judgment and the Parliament's new decision is admissible
  2. 2 Whether the requested interim measures have a direct link with the subject matter of the main action

Ratio Decidendi

The application for interim measures is inadmissible because the requested suspensions do not have a direct link with the subject matter of the main action, as the Parliament's new decision concerns a different parliamentary term and is not an implementation of the contested acts. Suspension of the General Court's judgment would not procure an advantage for the applicant, as his status for the relevant term was already recognized.

Court Disposition

Application for interim measures dismissed as inadmissible; costs reserved.

Orders

  • The application for interim measures is dismissed.
  • The costs are reserved.
