         Appellant: EMC Development AB (represented by: W.-N. Schelp, avocat)
      
         Other party to the proceedings: European Commission
      
         Form of order sought
      
      The appellant claims that the Court should:
      
                  (i)
               
               
                  annul the Commission's Decision dated 28.09.05;
               
            
                  (ii)
               
               
                  in the alternative to (i), set aside the Judgment under appeal in whole or in part and refer the case back to the General Court for an adjudication on the substance, in the light of the guidance which this Court may provide to it;
               
            
                  (iii)
               
               
                  in any event, Order the Commission to pay the costs of the Applicant incurred before the General Court and the Court of Justice.
               
            
         Pleas in law and main arguments
      
      The applicant submits that the General Court, in adopting the Commission's positions vis à vis the Guidelines, required the appellant to prove matters of fact and placed an unassailable burden upon the appellant. In so doing it has sought to require proof of the Standard's effects without considering the wider and more fundamental issues of its nature. The applicant considers that this constitutes an error of law and that the order of procedure of the tests as between the nature and the effects of the Standard have been reversed.
