Keywords

   Actions for annulment of measures - Action challenging a decision -
   Contested decision repealed in the course of the proceedings on account

   - Application rendered devoid of purpose - No need to proceed to

Summary

   When, on account of clerical error in a decision which is being
   contested in an action for annulment, a Community institution repeals
   that decision in the course of the proceedings in order to replace it
   with a new decision which is substantively identical, that repeal
   renders the application devoid of purpose and it is not necessary for
   the case to proceed to judgment unless the applicant can establish an
   interest in obtaining its annulment.
