         Pleas in law and main arguments
   The applicant is a former Commission official, in retirement since 1 September 2005. By her action, she contests the defendant's decision to consider some of her absences in 2004 to be improper and to be set against her annual leave entitlement and her remuneration. In support of her action she alleges infringement of the duty to give reasons, infringement of the principles of equal treatment and sound administration and the duty to have regard for the interests of officials.
   The applicant also alleges infringement of Article 59 of the Staff Regulations in so far as she has medical certificates for the periods of absence at issue. In addition, she alleges infringement of Article 57 of the Staff Regulations and Annex V thereto concerning annual leave, a manifest error of assessment and misuse of powers.
   The applicant also claims that she should be compensated for both the pecuniary and non-pecuniary loss that she allegedly incurred as a result of the defendant's actions.
