蘑菇视频 DISPUTE TRIB蘑菇视频AL TIME LIMITS

There are two key time limits for an application to the 蘑菇视频 Dispute Tribunal (蘑菇视频DT): (1) the time limit for a request for management evaluation (which is usually required (see exceptions*), before filing an application to the 蘑菇视频DT); and (2) the time limit for filing your application to the 蘑菇视频DT to have your dispute considered by the 蘑菇视频DT.

The following table lists both key time limits for the 蘑菇视频DT.

It also lists the time limits for filing an appeal with the 蘑菇视频 Appeals Tribunal.

Administration to provide management evaluation	30 days New York Headquarters staff (Geneva Headquarters staff for 蘑菇视频HCR); 45 days Non-Headquarters staff	Staff rule 11.2 (d)
Application to 蘑菇视频DT	90 days from receipt of management evaluation, or 90 days from date evaluation should have been received (namely, 30 calendar days for disputes arising at Headquarters and 45 calendar days for disputes arising at other offices); 90 days from receipt of the administrative decision in cases where management evaluation is not required	蘑菇视频DT Statute art. 8.1(i) 蘑菇视频DT rules of procedure, art. 7.1

* Exceptions to the requirement for management evaluation: A management evaluation request is not required if an Applicant is challenging a disciplinary decision, or one taken by the Administration pursuant to advice obtained from technical bodies, as determined by the Secretary-General. In those cases, an application can be made directly to 蘑菇视频DT.

IF YOU DON’T FILE WITHIN THE STATUTORY TIME LIMITS

Statutory time limits are strictly enforced by the Tribunals; hence it is extremely important that you respect them. If you do not file a request for management evaluation (as applicable) and an application with the 蘑菇视频DT within the statutory time limits listed above, your application will be rejected as not receivable unless exceptional circumstances are set out (see exceptional circumstances).

MORE INFORMATION ON TIME LIMITS

As noted in the table above, the time limit for a request for management evaluation is 60 days from when you received notification of the administrative decision you wish to contest. Please also note that the 蘑菇视频DT cannot suspend or waive the deadlines for management evaluation.

Upon receipt of your request for management evaluation, the official or office responsible for conducting the management evaluation is expected to provide you with a written response within 30 calendar days if your duty station is in Headquarters, New York (or Geneva for 蘑菇视频HCR), and within 45 calendar days if your office is located elsewhere. If you do not receive a response to your request for management evaluation within the applicable 30/45 days’ time limit, and you wish to file an application to the 蘑菇视频DT, you must submit your application to the 蘑菇视频DT within 90 calendar days from the date the management evaluation should have been received (but was not).

If the Administration does conduct a management evaluation, and you are not satisfied with the outcome, if you wish to appeal the administrative decision, you must submit an application to the 蘑菇视频DT within 90 calendar days after you received the management evaluation.

TIME LIMIT IF YOU HAVE SOUGHT MEDIATION

Mediation is an option to resolve a dispute informally. This can be pursued before or while a request for management evaluation is made. The management evaluation deadline may be extended by the Secretary-General, upon request of a staff member, pending efforts for informal resolution by the Office of the Ombudsman. If you have sought mediation of your dispute within the deadline for filing an application with the 蘑菇视频DT, facilitated by a mediator from the United Nations Ombudsman and Mediation Service, and no agreement was reached, and you wish to file an application with the 蘑菇视频DT, your application to the 蘑菇视频DT must be filed within 90 calendar days after the mediation broke down, in accordance with procedures laid down in the terms of reference of the .

If you file an application with the 蘑菇视频DT seeking enforcement of the implementation of a mediation agreement, your application must be filed within 90 calendar days after the last day of the implementation specified in the mediation agreement. If the mediation agreement is silent on the matter, your application must be filed within 90 calendar days after the thirtieth day from the date of the signing of the agreement.

See Practice Direction No. 3 on Mediation for more information on the above.

EXCEPTIONAL CASES

In exceptional cases, you may seek a suspension, waiver or extension of the time limit to submit a 蘑菇视频DT application. You must do so in writing by using the Motion for Extension of Time to File an Application. Your request must set out the exceptional reasons that, in your view, justify your request. Such written request should not exceed two pages in length (excluding the cover page). Note that 蘑菇视频DT cannot suspend or waive the time limits for requesting management evaluation.

For more on time limits see Article 8 of the 蘑菇视频DT STATUTE.
