Service Tribunal.

Pleas in law and main arguments

By its judgment of 13 December 2006 in Case F-17/05 de Brito
Sequeira Carvalho v Commission, the Civil Service Tribunal (CST)
upheld in part the action brought by the applicant at first
instance and annulled the Commission decision of 13 July 2004
prohibiting the applicant's access to its buildings and the deci-
sions automatically extending his sick leave.

The Commission bases the appeal, first, on the fact that the
Tribunal adjudicated ultra petita by annulling the Commission
decision of 13 July 2004 prohibiting the applicant's access to its
buildings and, second, on the fact that the judgment under
appeal infringed Community law. The Commission claims that
the Tribunal distorted the facts of the case, that it erred in law
in interpreting the obligation to state the reasons on which a
decision is based and that it infringed the fifth subparagraph of
Article 59(1) of the Staff Regulations. The Commission further
maintains
that by the interpretation in the judgment of
Article 59(5) of the Staff Regulations, the Tribunal distorted the
arbitration procedure provided for in that provision.
