Form of order sought

The appellants claim that the Court should:

—quash the judgment of the General Court in case T-163/14;

—uphold the application at first instance and annul the contested regulation in so far as it concerns appellants;

—order the respondent to pay the appellants’ costs, and its own costs, both at first instance and on appeal;

—order any other parties to the appeal to pay their own costs;

In the alternative

—quash the judgment of the General Court in case T-163/14;

—refer the case back to the General Court for judgment;

—reserve the costs at first instance and on appeal for final judgment by the General Court;

—order any other parties to the appeal to pay their own costs.

Pleas in law and main arguments

The General Court erred in law by requiring appellants to show an interest in raising the first and second pleas; in any event, the General Court erred in its legal characterization of the facts as the appellants have such an interest.
