Action brought on 26 March 2011 — Schönberger v Parliament
(Case T-186/11)
2011/C 145/63
Language of the case: German
Parties
Applicant: Peter Schönberger (Luxembourg, Luxembourg) (represented by: O. Mader, lawyer)
Defendant: European Parliament
Form of order sought
— |
Annul the defendant’s decision, of which the applicant was informed by letter of 25 January 2011, with which the examination of his petition No 1188/2010 was concluded without the content of the petition having been addressed by the Committee on Petitions; |
— |
Order the defendant to pay the costs. |
Pleas in law and main arguments
In support of the action, the applicant relies on two pleas in law.
1. |
The contested decision was adopted in infringement of the applicant’s fundamental right to petition, since, despite the admissibility of the applicant’s petition, the Parliament Committee on Petitions refused to hear the concerns submitted therein, and so the applicant’s right to have the content of his petition considered was refused. |
2. |
The Parliament breached the applicant’s right to a statement of reasons, since the decision challenged makes no reference to the grounds for the refusal of the Committee on Petitions to hear the petition. |
