Judgment_paragraph 59 · Jean-Charles Marchiani v European Parliament (C-566/14 P)

59It is clear that, in so far as the second ground of appeal involves the claim that the General Court erred in law in paragraph 54 of the judgment under appeal by holding ‘that it was … for the applicant to put forward evidence capable of calling into question the decision [at issue] in so far as the decision states that the applicant has not supplied any evidence sufficient to show that the parliamentary assistants in question had carried out the work of a parliamentary assistant within the meaning of Article 14 of the PEAM Rules’, that ground of appeal is directed against reasons included in the judgment under appeal purely for the sake of completeness. It is apparent from paragraph 54 that the appellant’s submission relating to the claim that the burden of proof falls on the Parliament was made for the first time before the General Court in his reply and that, on that basis, the General Court declared it to be inadmissible.
