   Form of order sought

               set aside the judgment of the Court of First Instance;

               —
            
            
               exercise its unlimited jurisdiction and award compensation totalling EUR 538 121,79 in respect of the economic damage which results from the Commission's unlawful conduct in adopting the harmful decision at issue, and which has been aggravated by the administrative reform for the remainder of his expected life;
            
         
               —

               —
            
            
               order the defendant to pay the appellant's costs in respect of both the case before the Court of First Instance and the present proceedings.
            
         Pleas in law and main arguments
   In his appeal against the judgment of 15 October 2008 in Case T-66/04 Christos Gogos v Commission of the European Communities, the appellant Christos Gogos puts forward, first of all, two pleas to substantiate his claim that the judgment of the Court of First Instance should be set aside.
   First, the appellant complains of insufficient and mistaken reasoning in respect of five of the six pleas for annulment which he put forward as applicant.
   Secondly, the appellant submits that the length of the proceedings before the Court of First Instance is not justified by objective reasons. Furthermore, he has been harmed economically and has suffered non-material damage because of that delay.
