23The Court must abide by the decision from a court of a Member State requesting a preliminary ruling in so far as that decision has not been overturned in any appeal procedures provided for by national law (judgments of 12 February 1974 in Rheinmühlen-Düsseldorf, 146/73, EU:C:1974:12, paragraph 3, and of 1 December 2005 in Burtscher, C‑213/04, EU:C:2005:731, paragraph 32). In the present case, it is apparent from the evidence produced during the proceedings that, by order of 18 November 2015, the Cour de cassation dismissed the appeal brought by Hoechst against the decision requesting a preliminary ruling, with the result that the view cannot be taken that that decision has been overturned.
