2014/C 253/82
Language of the case: Spanish
Parties
Applicant: Metalúrgica Galaica, SA (Narón, A Coruña, Spain) (represented by: A. López Gómez, lawyer)
Defendant: European Commission
Form of order sought
The applicant claims that the Court should:
—
annul the contested decision;
—
in the alternative, annul the decision categorising the measures which together constitute the ‘Spanish Tax Lease System’ (‘STLS’) as new State aid that is incompatible with the internal market;
—
in the alternative, annul Articles 1 and 4 of the contested decision, which identify the investors in the Economic Interest Groupings (EIGs) as the only beneficiaries of the alleged aid and, consequently, as solely liable for its recovery;
—
in the alternative, annul Article 4 of the contested decision, in so far as it orders recovery of the alleged aid in breach of general principles of EU law;
—
in the alternative, annul Article 4 of the contested decision, in so far as it makes a determination as to the lawfulness of private contracts between the investors and other entities, in full or in such a way as to limit the bar on passing on the burden of recovery to the profitability of the operations; and
—
order the Commission to pay the costs of these proceedings.
