and Viviane Deveen, residing in Belgium, represented by G.

— Annul the 2001-2002 appraisal exercise in relation to the

applicants;

— Alternatively, annul

the applicants' career development

reviews (REC/CDR) for the period 1.7.2001 – 31.12.2002;

The applicant challenges her career development report (CDR)
for the period from 1 July 2001 to 31 December 2002.

— Decide as to costs, expenses and fees and order

the

Commission of the European Communities to pay them.

In support of her application, the applicant submits that the
assessments set out in her CDR are manifestly flawed having
regard to several acts and events which took place during and
after the period of reference and to comments made by the
assessor and countersigning officer which contradict the mark
given and its meaning. The applicant further considers that the
CDR infringes Article 43 of the Staff Regulations in that the
new system of assessment can result in the under-assessment of
officials, as the applicant considers has occurred in her case,

Pleas in law and main arguments:

The pleas in law and main arguments relied upon by the appli-
cants in this case are the same as those relied upon by the
applicants in Cases T-43/04 and T-47/04.
