Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµAT Held or Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµDT Pronouncements

Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµAT considered an application revision of judgment No. 2019-Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµAT-936 by Mr Diallo. Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµAT held that Mr Diallo failed to establish the statutory conditions that had to be fulfilled before a judgment could be revised, namely there was no discovery of a decisive fact which was, at the time the judgment was rendered, unknown to Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµAT and to him. Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµAT held that an application for revision of a judgment that does not meet the statutory prerequisites cannot be a collateral means of attack on the judgment or allowed to be the second right of final appeal. Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµAT dismissed the application for revision.

Decision Contested or Judgment/Order Appealed

Mr. Diallo contested the termination of his appointment for unsatisfactory performance. In judgment No. 2019-Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµAT-936, Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµAT affirmed the Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµDT judgment No. 2019/Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµDT/002 which had dismissed his application as not receivable for failure to request management evaluation prior to submitting the application to Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµDT.

Legal Principle(s)

An application for revision of a judgment that does not meet the statutory prerequisites cannot be a collateral means of attack on the judgment or allowed to be the second right of final appeal.

Outcome
