Operative part of the judgment
The Court:
|
1. |
annuls the decision of the applicant's superior of 27 February 2004 refusing to sign his application to carry over annual leave from 2003 to 2004, in so far as it refuses to grant the carrying over, in addition to the 12 days which may be carried over as of right, of eight days of annual leave referred to by the director of resources of the Joint Research Centre in an email of 11 February 2003; |
|
2. |
orders the Commission to pay the applicant a sum corresponding to eight thirtieths of his monthly remuneration at the time of leaving the service, together with default interest as from 13 September 2004. The rate of default interest to be applied is to be calculated on the basis of the European Central Bank's rate for its main refinancing operations, in force during the period concerned, plus two percentage points; |
|
3. |
dismisses the action as to the remainder; |
|
4. |
orders the Commission to bear its own costs and to pay the costs incurred by the applicant. |
