46As regards the alleged distortion of the facts, it is clear from Article 256 TFEU and from the first paragraph of Article 58 of the Statute of the Court of Justice of the European Union that appeals are limited to points of law. The General Court, therefore, has exclusive jurisdiction to make findings in respect of the relevant facts and to assess those facts and the evidence. Accordingly, the assessment of those facts and that evidence does not therefore, save where it distorts those facts and evidence, constitute a point of law which is, as such, subject on appeal to review by the Court of Justice. Such distortion must be clearly apparent from the documents in the case file, without there being any need to carry out a new assessment of the facts and the evidence (judgment of 1 October 2020, CC v Parliament, C‑612/19 P, not published, EU:C:2020:776, paragraph 51 and the case-law cited).
