                  Sets aside the order of the European Union Civil Service Tribunal (First Chamber) of 2 August 2016, Cocchi and Falcione v Commission (F-134/11) inasmuch as the European Union Civil Service Tribunal held that there was no longer any need to adjudicate on the claims for damages submitted by Mr Giorgio Cocchi and Ms Nicola Falcione at first instance;

                  3.
               
               
                  Dismisses the claims for damages submitted by Mr Cocchi and Ms Falcione in their actions at first instance under case number F-134/11;
               
            
                  4.
               
               
                  Orders each party to bear its own costs relating to the appeal proceedings and the proceedings at first instance so far as the claims for damages are concerned.
