Action brought on 10 November 2004 by the Commission of the European Communities against the Hellenic Republic
(Case C-474/04)

An action against the Hellenic Republic was brought before the Court of Justice of the European Communities on 10 November 2004 by the Commission of the European Communities, represented by Maria Kondou Durande and Carmel O'Reilly, Legal Advisers in the Commission's Legal Service.

— |
order the Hellenic Republic to pay the costs. |
