Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµAT Held or Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµDT Pronouncements

Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµAT considered an application for ¡°reconsideration¡± of Judgment No. 2010-Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµAT-029bis. Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµAT noted that its judgments are final and not subject to appeal except under Article 11 of its Statute, relating to the procedures for revision and correction of material errors and that no appeal against res judicata is admissible. Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµAT held that the application was an appeal against res judicata and, as such, was inadmissible. Noting that Ms. El-Khatib¡¯s appeal was dismissed as non-receivable and without merit, Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµAT held that the application for ¡°reconsideration¡± constituted an abuse of the appeals procedure. Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµAT rejected the application.
