Pleas in law and main arguments

The appellants rely on three pleas in law in support of their appeal.

First, the appellants complain that the General Court wrongly assessed the harm suffered by them in the context of the plea referring to non-contractual liability for an illegal act.

Second, the appellants maintain that the General Court, by not carrying out a correct assessment of the harm individually suffered by each appellant, infringed fundamental rights guaranteed under European Union law.

Third, and in the alternative, the appellants complain that the General Court failed to acknowledge, on the basis of the general principles common to the laws of the Member States, non-contractual liability for a lawful act.
