Procedural Posture

Annulment Proceedings (joint Cases) / First Instance Judgment

  1. 1 Whether the pension bulletins applying the new corrective coefficient regime constitute acts adversely affecting the applicants (actes faisant grief)
  2. 2 Whether the applicants have a current and actual interest to act (intérêt à agir) against the May 2004 pension bulletins
  3. 3 Whether the exception of illegality against the new regime is admissible

Ratio Decidendi

The applicants' pension bulletins for May 2004 did not adversely affect their financial situation, as the nominal amount of their pensions was guaranteed and unchanged from April 2004. Therefore, the bulletins did not constitute acts adversely affecting them, and the applicants lacked a current and actual interest to act. Consequently, the actions and the incidental exception of illegality were inadmissible.

Court Disposition
