Ģ��ƵAT Held or Ģ��ƵDT Pronouncements

Granting an application for revision: As consistently held by the Appeals Tribunal, ��the review procedure [of revision] is of a corrective nature and thus is not an opportunity for a party to reargue his or her case�� (see Sanwidi 2013-Ģ��ƵAT-321, para. 8. Moreover, an application for revision of a judgment is only receivable if it fulfills the strict and exceptional criteria established under art. 12.1 of the Dispute Tribunal��s Statute and art. 29 of its Rules of Procedure, namely (see James 2016-Ģ��ƵAT-680, para. 13): �� Accordingly, an application for revision of judgment is only receivable if it fulfils the strict and exceptional criteria established under Article 11 of the Statute (discovery of a decisive fact previously unknown not due to negligence, clerical or arithmetical mistakes, and interpretation of the meaning and scope of the judgment)��.
