Form of order sought
The applicant claims that the Court should:
|
— |
annul the Europol decision of 15 October 2024, rejecting the application lodged on 18 June 2024, submitted under Article 90(1) of the Staff Regulations of Officials of the European Union and Conditions of Employment of Other Servants of the European Union, by which the applicant sought to remain in post for an additional year; |
|
— |
annul the decision taken by the Management Board Complaints Committee of 25 March 2025 dismissing the appeal of 6 December 2024, brought under Article 90(2) of the Staff Regulations of Officials of the European Union and Conditions of Employment of Other Servants of the European Union; |
|
— |
order Europol to pay compensation for harm and for non-material harm relating to stress and to a situation of uncertainty caused by the present proceedings, estimated on an equitable basis at EUR 2 000, together with interest and adjusted for inflation from the time when the right arose until final settlement; |
|
— |
order Europol to pay the costs. |
Pleas in law and main arguments
– In support of the action, the applicant relies on the following pleas in law:
|
1. |
First plea in law, raising a plea of illegality under Article 277 TFEU. Breach of law, put forward from the point of view of a breach of overriding principles of law (Articles 20 and 21 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights, Article 1d of the Staff Regulations and Council Directive 1999/70/EC of 28 June 1999 concerning the framework agreement on fixed-term work concluded by ETUC, UNICE and CEEP (1)).
|
|
2. |
Second plea in law, alleging infringement of the rules governing the succession of laws. Error of law. The succession of laws requires that new legal rules of a general and abstract nature be applied also to situations arising under an earlier law and having ongoing effects up to the time of entry into force of the new law. The applicant’s contract continued to produce legal effects on 21 March 2024, the date of entry into force of the decision of a general and abstract nature, which therefore should have produced effects on that contract. |
