         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

      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.
