Abstract A search for multi-lepton (electron or muon) events at high transverse momenta is performed on a data sample collected in e+-p collisions with the H1 detector at HERA during the period 1994-2007. This data sample corresponds to an integrated luminosity of 459 pb-1. With respect to the published HERA I multi-electron and multi-muon analyses, additional topologies with high PT electrons and muons are investigated. Yields of di-lepton and tri-lepton events are measured and a general good agreement is found with the Standard Model (SM) predictions. Combining all channels, four events are observed with a scalar sum of lepton transverse momenta (sum PT ) greater than 100 GeV, compared to a SM expectation of 1.9 +- 0.4. The four events with sum P_T > 100 GeV are observed in e+p collisions only where the SM expectation is of 1.2 +- 0.2. .
