         Form of order sought
      
      The applicant claims that the Court should:
      
                  —
               
               
                  annul the decisions of the Appointing Authority of 5 September 2019, denying information relevant for his defence, and of 6 April 2020, rejecting his complaint;
               
            
                  —
               
               
                  order the defendant to pay an amount of EUR 50 000, in compensation for the non-material damage suffered, together with interest at the legal rate until payment in full has been made; and
               
            
                  —
               
               
                  order the defendant to pay the costs.
               
            
         Pleas in law and main arguments
      
      In support of the action, the applicant relies on two pleas in law.
      
                  1.
               
               
                  First plea in law, alleging violation of the applicant’s right of defence and his right to effective remedy.
               
            
                  2.
               
               
                  Second plea in law, alleging that the Appointing Authority made a manifest error in assessing the subject matter of the complaint, omitting a key plea and showing a disregard for the likelihood of/change in the applicant’s legal situation.
