2013/C 260/43
Language of the case: German
Appellant: European Commission (represented by: F. Dintilhac, G. Wilms, G. Zavvos, Agents)
Other party to the proceedings: IPK International — World Tourism Marketing Consultants GmbH
The Appellant claims that the Court should
—set aside the judgment of the General Court (First Chamber) of 10 April 2013 in Case T-671/11;
—dismiss the claim by IPK International — World Tourism Marketing Consultants GmbH against the Commission of 22 December 2011
—order IPK International — World Tourism Marketing Consultants GmbH to pay the costs at both instances.
The Appellant argues that the judgment under appeal is legally defective in numerous respects:
It fails to take account of the case-law of the Court of Justice according to which equalisation interest serves to compensate for inflation.
Contrary to the case-law of the Court of Justice, it fails to make a distinction between equalisation interest and interest for delay, and sets both interest rates at two percentage points above the main refinancing interest rate of the European Central Bank.
It contains a calculation error, in that it capitalises the equalisation interest and calculates the interest for delay from 15 April 2011.
It misinterprets the contested decision and its own judgment in Case T-297/05 (1) and distorts the facts.
It contains an insufficient statement of reasons: It is not possible to determine the reasons for the amount of the interest calculation and the beginning of the calculation of interest for delay and the reasoning is inherently contradictory.
It infringes the principles of EU law on enrichment.
