Pleas in law and main arguments

In support of the action against the decisions of the Commission of 6 and 9 April 2021 and of 4 May 2021 to recover the

of sums paid but not due are not met.

conditions to characterise legitimate expectations under the applicable legislation are met.

Pleas in law and main arguments

In support of the action against the decision of the Commission of 14 April 2021 dismissing the applicant’s claim for
compensation filed on 22 December 2020, the applicant relies on three pleas in law.
1. First plea in law, alleging infringement of the right to sound administration and the principle of impartiality. The
applicant submits that, in the context of the preparatory inquiry of the claim for compensation, the requirement of
impartiality has not been met, both subjectively and objectively.
2. Second plea in law, alleging infringement of the right to integrity and dignity and the existence of several manifest errors
of assessment. The applicant claims that the defendant failed to comply with its duty to preserve and protect its dignity
and its integrity, having regard to the acts of violence by security personnel against him and the finding of which is
vitiated by manifest errors of assessment.
3. Third plea in law, alleging breach of the duty of care in that the applicant did not receive all the support which he was
entitled to expect from the defendant.
