Summary

Appeals - Decisions against which an appeal may be brought - Order of the Court of First Instance requiring production of documents - Not covered - Appeal must be dismissed

(EC Statute of the Court of Justice, Art. 49, first para.; Rules of Procedure of the Court, Art. 119)

$$Pursuant to Article 119 of the Rules of Procedure of the Court of the Justice, an appeal seeking to have an order made by the Court of First Instance set aside must be dismissed as clearly inadmissible where the order under appeal instructs the Commission to produce documents so that they can be placed in the case-file and made available to the other party. Such an order does not fall within one of the categories of measure against which an appeal may be brought pursuant to the first paragraph of Article 49 of the Statute of the Court of Justice.
