UNDT/2013/129, Al-Mulla

UNAT Held or UNDT Pronouncements

In that judgment, the Tribunal had inter alia found that the decision to require the Applicant to revert to his initial P-3 post had not been the subject of a management evaluation and consequently was not receivable. He requested the Tribunal to vacate certain paragraphs of the judgment. The Tribunal held that for a request for revision to be successful, all the requirements in art.12.1 of its Statute have to be met.

Decision Contested or Judgment Appealed

The Applicant is a staff member of UNODC. On 3 July 2013, he filed an application for revision of judgment UNDT/2011/105.

Legal Principle(s)

Negligence: The Applicant’s lack of awareness of the importance of the need for the decisive fact to have been clearly adduced at the hearing can only be attributed to his negligence or that of his counsel advising him throughout the proceedings. Request for revision: Request for revision is only receivable if it is made within the appropriate time frame.
