As a preliminary matter, in response to the Appellant’s request for interim measures, in which she requested that the Secretary-General complied with the UNDT judgment insofar as it had not been appealed against, UNAT denied the motion on the basis that execution should have been requested before UNDT. On the Appellant’s motion to strike assertions and evidence, UNAT noted that the Appellant was supplementing her appeal, and denied the motion. On the merits, UNAT held that the appeal was limited to the request for further compensation, as per the Appellant’s Power of Attorney document, and that all her other claims were not receivable. On the Appellant’s claim that the judgment failed to set in-lieu compensation as an alternative to rescission, UNAT held that it is only required when the contested administrative decision concerns appointment, promotion or termination and that therefore there was no error and the Appellant’s appeal on the matter must fail. On the Appellant’s claim of specific performance in the form of payment of sick leave entitlements which had not been exhausted, UNAT held that the claim failed. On the Appellant’s other claims, including the request to increase the amount of costs awarded, UNAT held that the Appellant failed to establish any errors of law or of fact leading to a manifestly unreasonable decision by the UNDT. UNAT held that it would defer to UNDT on the amount of costs awarded. UNAT took note of the recent issuance ST/AI/2019/1 on resolution of disputes relating to medical determinations that occurred after the issuance of UNDT judgment and recommended that the Administration review the applicability of it to the Appellant’s situation, as the matter remained unresolved. UNAT dismissed the appeal and affirmed the UNDT judgment.
