1 THE APPLICANT ASKS THE COURT TO DECLARE THAT SHE HELD A CONTRACT AS A MEMBER OF THE TEMPORARY STAFF EXPIRING ON 31 JULY 1974 AND THAT THE COMMISSION WAS NOT ENTITLED TO TERMINATE THAT CONTRACT OTHERWISE THAN IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE CONDITIONS LAID DOWN BY ARTICLES 47 ET SEQ . OF THE CONDITIONS OF EMPLOYMENT OF OTHER SERVANTS OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES .
2 IN ADDITION, AND AS A CONSEQUENCE OF SUCH DECLARATIONS, SHE ASKS THAT THE COMMISSION BE ORDERED TO PAY TO HER HER SALARY FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1 NOVEMBER 1973 TO 31 JULY 1974 .
3 IT IS APPROPRIATE, FIRST OF ALL, TO ESTABLISH WHETHER THE COMPETENT AUTHORITY OF THE COMMISSION OFFERED THE APPLICANT A RENEWAL OF HER CONTRACT OF EMPLOYMENT FOR A PERIOD OF ONE YEAR .
4 ALTHOUGH THE COMMISSION'S DEPARTMENTS APPEAR TO HAVE HAD THE INTENTION OF RENEWING THE APPLICANT'S CONTRACT FOR A PERIOD OF ONE YEAR, SUCH INTENTION WAS NOT CRYSTALLIZED IN AN EXPRESS OFFER TO THE APPLICANT BY THE APPOINTING AUTHORITY .
5 THE ONLY EXPRESS OFFER OF A RENEWAL OF THE CONTRACT COMING FROM THAT AUTHORITY AND ADDRESSED TO THE APPLICANT WAS THE OFFER IN THE TWO LETTERS OF 24 AND 28 AUGUST 1973 TO EXTEND THE CONTRACT FOR A PERIOD OF THREE MONTHS .
6 EVEN IF IT WERE ASSUMED THAT THE COMPUTER CARD OF 24 AUGUST 1973 CONCERNING PERSONAL INFORMATION ON THE APPLICANT COULD BE INTERPRETED AS CONTAINING AN OFFER FOR THE EXTENSION OF HER CONTRACT FOR A PERIOD OF ONE YEAR, THAT OFFER WOULD IN ANY EVENT HAVE BEEN REVOKED BY THE EXPRESS OFFER OF AN EXTENSION OF THREE MONTHS CONTAINED IN THE TWO LETTERS OF 24 AND 28 AUGUST 1973 .
7 MOREOVER IT IS ESTABLISHED THAT THE APPLICANT RECEIVED THE COMPUTER CARD AND THE TWO LETTERS AT THE SAME TIME .
8 SHE THEREFORE NEVER HAD AN OFFER OF THE EXTENSION OF HER CONTRACT FOR A PERIOD OF ONE YEAR, WHICH SHE COULD HAVE ACCEPTED .
9 THE APPLICANT'S REMAINING CONCLUSIONS PRESUPPOSE THAT THE EXISTENCE OF A CONTRACT FOR ONE YEAR IS ESTABLISHED .
10 THE APPLICATION MUST THEREFORE BE DISMISSED .
