Judgment of 29 Mar 2011law://eu/cjeu/2009/c-352-09/para_136@2026-11-11

136It must be remembered, however, that if the reasoning in a judgment of the General Court discloses an infringement of European Union law but its operative part is well founded on other legal grounds, the appeal must be dismissed (Case C-210/98 P Salzgitter v Commission [2000] ECR I-5843, paragraph 58).
