Action brought on 7 November 2008 — Ryanair/Commission

(Case T-509/08)

(2009/C 32/85)

Language of the case: English

Parties

Applicant: Ryanair Ltd (Dublin, Ireland) (represented by: E. Vahida, I. Metaxas-Maragkidis, lawyers)

Defendant: Commission of the European Communities

Form of order sought

declare in accordance with Articles 230 and 231 EC that the Commission's implied decision refusing access to the documents for which access was requested by the applicant in an application dated 20 June 2008 is void and that the Commission's decision of 26 September 2008 refusing access to the same documents is non-existent;

alternatively, declare in accordance with Articles 230 and 231 EC that the Commission's decision of 26 September 2008 refusing access to the documents for which access was requested by the applicant in an application dated 20 June 2008 is void;

order the Commission to pay the costs incurred by the applicant in the proceedings; and

take such further action as the Court may deem appropriate.

Pleas in law and main arguments

By means of this application the applicant seeks annulment of the Commission implied decision rejecting the applicant's request, pursuant to Regulation No 1049/2001 (1), of the access to documents relating to State aid procedures concerning the presumed State aid granted through an agreement with the operator of Bratislava airport. The said decision was followed by the express decision of 26 September 2008. The annulment of the express decision is alternatively sought by the applicant in the present case.

The pleas in law and main arguments relied on by the applicant are identical to those relied on in Case T-494/08 Ryanair v Commission.
