Pleas in law and main arguments

By the present appeal, the appellant is seeking the annulment of the judgment of the Civil Service Tribunal of 24 February 2010, delivered in Case F-89/08 P v Parliament, which dismissed the action by which the appellant had sought, inter alia, the annulment of the decision of the European Parliament to terminate his temporary agent contract, and payment of damages and interest as compensation for the loss allegedly suffered.
In support of his appeal, the appellant submits three pleas alleging:






—


an error of law and contradictory reasoning inasmuch as the Civil Service Tribunal considers that becoming aware of the grounds for a decision solely by consulting one’s personal file is adequate and does not lead to the annulment of the decision, despite the fact that the institution did not set out those grounds in the decision to dismiss or in the decision rejecting the complaint;










—


a misunderstanding by the Civil Service Tribunal (i) of the system of separation of powers and institutional equilibrium between the administration and the Courts, (ii) of the right to effective judicial protection, inasmuch as the Civil Service Tribunal assumed the role of the European Parliament by stating, in its place, the alleged reasons for the decision which was contested before the Tribunal;










—


a lack of adequate reasoning in the judgment under appeal, inasmuch as the Civil Service Tribunal did not comment on the fact that the documents on the file, leading to the decision which was contested before it, were contradictory, despite the fact that the appellant had raised those inconsistencies in his action at first instance.
