In general, there is no right to renewal of appointment for staff members serving on a temporary appointment. In the case at hand, no improper motives neither countervailing circumstances existed which may have tainted the contested decision with illegality. The reasons for that decision - no budgeted or approved posts of Language Assistant, Interpreter or Translator at his level in UNAMI, abolislnnent of the post - are acceptable. Although the Organization was not obliged to find alternative employment for the applicant as a staff member holding a temporary appointment, a bona fide effort was made by assigning him to UNAMI for a total of nine months. However, he failed to apply for vacant positions during that period. The Organization is not obliged to create a specific post at a certain level for a given staff member. Also, the Applicant did not have a legitimate expectancy of having his contract renewed. No expressed or even implied promise of the Administration could be found. The decision was not tainted by discrimination or other extraneous factors.
