2014-UNAT-490, Dzuverovic

UNAT Held or UNDT Pronouncements

UNAT considered Ms Dzuverovic’s Application for Interpretation of judgment, specifically the portion that dismissed the Secretary-General’s cross-appeal to redact the recommendations made by UNDT and thus allowed them to remain despite the fact that Ms Dzuverovic’s UNDT application was not receivable. UNAT held that it explained the meaning and scope of its decision to dismiss the Secretary-General’s cross-appeal and not to redact the UNDT recommendations when it stated that the recommendations had no binding consequences on the parties. UNAT found that the judgment was not ambiguous and, accordingly, did not admit the application for interpretation.

Decision Contested or Judgment Appealed

Ms Dzuverovic contested the decision to not take action on her requests to investigate her allegations of irregularity. UNAT held that UNDT properly determined that her application was not receivable and dismissed her appeal.
