Summary — Judgment of the General Court (Eighth Chamber), 16 October 2014 1. Actions for annulment — Jurisdiction of the EU judicature — Review of legality of the contested measure — Criteria — Considerations of fairness or appropriateness — Not included (Art. 263 TFEU) 2. State aid — Existing aid and new aid — Classification as new aid — Extension of an existing aid scheme to new beneficiaries — Included (Arts 107(1) TFEU and 108(3) TFEU) 1. Where an action for the annulment of a measure under Article 263 TFEU is brought before the Courts of the European Union, their jurisdiction is limited to reviewing the legality of the contested measure. The consequence of a finding of illegality on one of the grounds stated in the second paragraph of Article 263 TFEU is that the Court must annul the measure in question, in its entirety or in part, depending on the case and, in particular, the nature and extent of the illegality. The Court has no discretion as regards such annulment and no power to alter the scope of the annulment by reference to considerations of fairness or appropriateness. (see paras 44, 45) 2.
