Request for a preliminary ruling from the Juzgado de Primera Instancia No 6 de Ceuta (Spain) lodged on 15 January 2024 – Justa v Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria SA


(Case C-39/24)

(C/2024/3304)
Language of the case: Spanish

Referring court

Juzgado de Primera Instancia No 6 de Ceuta

Parties to the main proceedings


Applicant: Justa

Defendant: Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, SA

Questions referred







1.


Does European legislation preclude the interpretation by the Supreme Court in relation to the arrangement fee, according to which the simple mention of the amount of the contract term in the mortgage instrument, and that the amount does not exceed the ceiling laid down, is sufficient for it to be held that the term is not unfair, in the light of Article 4(2) of Directive 93/13/EEC, (1) on the ground of a lack of transparency, even though that term contains no indication of content or time?










2.


If the consumer is previously informed of the contract term in question and if that term is not understood to be included in the activity of bank lending, as indicated in Directive 2014/17/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council, (2) and if it is considered to be unrelated to the remunerative interest, should invoices not be drawn up and should the services in question not be definitively specified before the charge is passed on to the consumer, and would such omission to do so not be contrary to European legislation by affecting the transparency of the contract term in question in a material sense?

Action brought on 15 January 2024 — UT v Commission
(Case T-27/24)
(C/2024/1876)
Language of the case: French

Parties


Applicant: UT (represented by: N. de Montigny, lawyer)

Defendant: European Commission

Form of order sought

The applicant claims that the Court should:






—


annul the decision of 6 April 2023;










—


order the defendant to pay the costs.





Pleas in law and main arguments

In support of the action brought against the review decision of 6 April 2023 of the selection board in Competition EPSO/AD/398/22-4 confirming the decision not to include his name on the list of persons invited to the assessment centre, the applicant relies on four pleas in law.






1.


First plea in law, alleging a lack of legal certainty of the notice of competition stemming from its vague wording;










2.


Second plea in law, alleging infringement of the notice of competition by the administration and a failure to assess the various criteria and competencies required by that notice;










3.


Third plea in law, alleging a lack of reasoning for the scores obtained by the applicant, with the result that he is unable to understand the scores that he obtained for each reply or to verify their validity, and a lack of a personal and individual decision rejecting his request for review;










4.


Fourth plea in law, alleging a manifest error in the assessment of the applicant’s replies, in that there are errors and inconsistencies between the questions asked and the scores that he obtained, as well as a manifest error in the assessment of his replies to questions 4 and 8 and the existence of possible technical errors that might explain that error.
