If the terms of Article 241 EC prevent the lack of care of a privileged applicant, which has not brought an action for the annulment of a regulation within the time-limits, from being relied on against it in order to declare inadmissible a plea of illegality raised in regard to the same measure, I think that the same must, a fortiori, apply where a Member State has brought an action within the timelimits but that action has been dismissed on the ground that its claim for partial annulment was inadmissible.
Kui EÜ artikli 241 sõnastusega on vastuolus, et määruse vastu tähtaegselt tühistamishagi esitamata jätnud, eelisõigusega hageja vastu saaks tugineda tema hooletusele, et tunnistada vastuvõetamatuks vastava akti vastu esitatud õigusvastasuse väide, siis kehtib selline lahendus minu arvates a fortiori sellisel puhul, kui liikmesriik on küll esitatud tühistamishagi tähtaegselt, aga tema hagi on osalise tühistamise nõuete vastuvõetamatuse tõttu rahuldamata jäetud.
