Appeal brought on 24 February 2014 by Council of the European Union against the judgment of the Civil Service Tribunal of 12 December 2013 in Case F-142/11 Simpson v Council
(Case T-130/14 P)
(2014/C 135/68)
Language of the case: English

Parties


Appellant: Council of the European Union (represented by: M. Bauer and A. Bisch, acting as Agents)

Other party to the proceedings: Erik Simpson (Brussels, Belgium)

Form of order sought by the appellant

The appellant claims that the Court should:






—


Set aside the judgment of the European Union Civil Service Tribunal (First Chamber) of 12 December 2013 in Case F-142/11, Erik Simpson v Council, insofar as it annuls the decision of the Council of the European Union of 9 December 2010 and declares that the Council of the European Union is to bear its own costs and orders it to pay the costs incurred by Mr. Simpson;










—


Refer the case back to the Civil Service Tribunal; and










—


Order the applicant at first instance to pay the costs of these proceedings.





Pleas in law and main arguments

In support of the appeal, the appellant relies on one plea in law, alleging that the conclusion of the Civil Service Tribunal, according to which the contested decision is unlawful on grounds of infringement of the obligation to state grounds, is based on erroneous premises due to the distortion of evidence and cannot therefore be upheld.

Questions referred







1.


Do Articles 6(1) and 7(1) of Council Directive 93/13/EEC (1) preclude a provision, such as the Second Transitional Provision of Law No 1/2013 of 14 May, which provides at all events for a reduction of the default interest rate, regardless of whether the term concerning default interest was originally void because it was unfair?










2.


Do Articles 3(1), 4(1), 6(1) and 7(1) of Directive 93/13 preclude a provision of national law, such as Article 114 of the Law on Mortgages, which allows the national court, when assessing the unfairness of a term fixing default interest, to examine only whether the agreed interest rate exceeds 3 times the statutory interest rate and no other circumstances?










3.


Do Articles 3(1), 4(1), 6(1) and 7(1) of Directive 93/13 preclude a provision of national law, such as Article 693 LEC, which allows a claim to be made for accelerated repayment of the total amount of the loan on the grounds of failure to pay three monthly instalments, without taking into account other factors such as the duration or amount of the loan or any other relevant matters and which also makes the possibility of avoiding the effects of such accelerated repayment dependent on the will of the creditor except in cases in which the mortgage is secured on the mortgagor’s permanent residence?
