         Pleas in law and main arguments
   The applicant, a former member of the temporary staff of the European Court of Auditors in Grade A*8, was appointed as a probationary official in Grade A*5, without his agreement being sought beforehand.
   In his application, the applicant maintains that the defendant's conduct amounts to breaches of contractual and non-contractual duties. He alleges infringement of the Code of good administrative conduct for the staff of the European Court of Auditors, infringement of Article 25 of the Staff Regulations, as well as infringement of the general principles of the law of the public service relating to sound administration, legitimate expectations and the retention of acquired rights.
