Pleas in law and main arguments

a

applicant,

former member of

the Commission's
The
temporary staff, worked for
the latter continuously from
16 January 2001 to 31 December 2005 under six different
fixed-term contracts concluded in the following order: a first
contract as a member of the temporary staff, a first contract as
a member of the auxiliary staff, a second contract as a member
of the temporary staff, a second contract as a member of the
auxiliary staff, a third contract as a member of the temporary
staff and, finally, a contract as a member of the contract staff.

The administration granted her entitlement to the unemploy-
ment allowance for a maximum period of 11 months and
25 days, in so far as it held that the periods covered by the
auxiliary staff contracts should be treated as periods spent in the
service of an employer other than the Community institutions.

In support of her action, the applicant submits, first, that the
Commission committed an abuse of rights by retaining her in
its service more than five years under a variety of fixed-term
contracts and under different sets of staff regulations. Secondly,
she submits that the Commission misapplied Article 28a(4) and
the Conditions of Employment of Other
Article 96(4) of
Servants,
in so far as the period during which the applicant
worked as a member of the auxiliary staff was not taken into
account for the purposes of their provisions.
