Judgment_paragraph 12 · Olli Mattila v Council of the European Union and Commission of the European Communities (C-353/01 P)

12The Commission considers that the appeal is manifestly inadmissible. In disregard of the requirements of the case-law, the appeal essentially repeats the arguments already submitted to and addressed by the Court of First Instance, and thus consists essentially of a request for reexamination of the original application. Contrary to Mr Mattila's arguments, the issue of proportionality and partial access was fully argued by the parties and considered by the Court of First Instance on the basis of its reasoning in Case T-14/98 Hautala v Council [1999] ECR II-2489, which has been since confirmed by the Court of Justice in Council v Hautala.
