Judgment_paragraph 111 · Alliance One International Inc., formerly Standard Commercial Corp., and Standard Commercial Tobacco Co. Inc. v European Commission and European Commission v Alliance One International Inc. and Others (C-628/10 P, C-14/11 P)

111In accordance with settled case-law, to allow a party to put forward for the first time before the Court of Justice a plea in law which it has not raised before the General Court would in effect allow that party to bring before the Court a wider case than that heard by the General Court. In an appeal, the Court’s jurisdiction is, as a general rule, confined to a review of the assessment by the General Court of the pleas argued before it (AceaElectrabel Produzione v Commission, paragraph 113 and case-law cited).
