Ģ��ƵAT Held or Ģ��ƵDT Pronouncements

Ģ��ƵAT held that Ģ��ƵDT had correctly determined that the staff member��s application had become moot.

Ģ��ƵAT dismissed the appeal and affirmed the Ģ��ƵDT judgment.

Decision Contested or Judgment/Order Appealed

The Applicant contested the disbanding of and failure to reinstate the fact-finding panel formed to investigate her allegations of harassment and abuse of authority against her supervisor. Ģ��ƵAMA convened a new fact-finding panel, of which the Applicant was informed on the same date by letter. Ģ��ƵDT dismissed the application, finding it moot since the fact-finding panel had been reconvened. Ģ��ƵDT further considered that it had no jurisdiction to consider the case since the Applicant had not requested management evaluation of the contested issue.
