Ģ��ƵAT Held or Ģ��ƵDT Pronouncements

Ģ��ƵAT considered an application for revision of judgment No. 2011-Ģ��ƵAT-131 by Ms Cohen. Ģ��ƵAT held that none of the grounds for revision set forth by Ms Cohen met the requirements of Article 11(1) of the Ģ��ƵAT Statute or Article 24 of the Ģ��ƵAT Rules of Procedure. Ģ��ƵAT held that none of the grounds provided were new facts, but rather they were new legal arguments and an attempt by Ms Cohen to re-litigate her case and complain about Ģ��ƵAT reducing the compensation awarded. Ģ��ƵAT dismissed the application for revision.

Decision Contested or Judgment/Order Appealed

In judgment No. 2011-Ģ��ƵAT-131, Ģ��ƵAT reduced the amount of compensation for pecuniary damages for loss of earnings and amended the amount of interest awarded.

Legal Principle(s)

No party may seek revision of a judgment merely because that party is dissatisfied with the pronouncement of the Tribunal and wants to have a second round of litigation.
