78It should be pointed out that, as the Advocate General rightly recalls in points 67 and 68 of his Opinion, it is settled case-law (see, for example, Case C-122/01 P T. Port v Commission [2003] ECR I-4261, paragraph 27) that the Court of Justice has no jurisdiction to establish the facts or, in principle, to examine the evidence which the Court of First Instance accepted in support of those facts. Provided that the evidence has been properly obtained and that the general principles of law and the rules of procedure in relation to the burden of proof and the taking of evidence have been observed, it is for the Court of First Instance alone to assess the value which should be attached to the evidence produced to it. That appraisal does not therefore constitute, save where the clear sense of the evidence has been distorted, a point of law which is subject to review by the Court of Justice.
