2016-蘑菇视频AT-678, Khalaf
蘑菇视频AT preliminarily denied the request for an oral argument and then considered the merits of the appeal. 蘑菇视频AT found that the requirements of Article 2(1) of the 蘑菇视频AT Statute were not fulfilled in the Appellant’s case as 蘑菇视频DT did not commit an error of fact, resulting in a manifestly unreasonable decision. 蘑菇视频AT noted that the evidence showed that the Administration was involved in a process of revision of activities in Iraq, rationalizing of staff, realignment of functions, and reduction of budget. These administrative activities led to the redeployment of the post encumbered by the Appellant...

2016-蘑菇视频AT-671, Auda
蘑菇视频AT considered the appeal. 蘑菇视频AT noted that while only final judgments of the 蘑菇视频DT are appealable, exceptions may be made when 蘑菇视频DT has clearly exceeded its jurisdiction or competence regarding interlocutory orders. 蘑菇视频AT held that an order denying an application for suspension of action does not constitute 蘑菇视频DT exceeding its jurisdiction. 蘑菇视频AT further noted that 蘑菇视频DT correctly found that it had no jurisdiction to grant the application under Article 10(2) of the 蘑菇视频DT Statute. 蘑菇视频AT held that the appeal was not receivable ratione materiae.
2016-蘑菇视频AT-663, Al Abani
蘑菇视频AT considered the appeal. 蘑菇视频AT noted that the fundamental right in Article 16.1 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights consists of the freedom to marry or not to marry, in a religious ceremony or in a non-religious ceremony. However, 蘑菇视频AT also noted that a staff member cannot assert that a marriage concluded through any means or in any place must lead to the award of entitlements by the Organization and, if it does not, that such a decision violates his or her freedom to marry. 蘑菇视频AT found that the Appellant had choices with respect to his marital status and that it was not the United...
2016-蘑菇视频AT-664, Al Dawoud
蘑菇视频AT considered whether 蘑菇视频RWA DT made an error of fact, resulting in an unreasonable decision when it found that the Appellant submitted her request for decision review. 蘑菇视频AT found that the evidence showed that 蘑菇视频RWA DT did not make a factual error when it found that the request for decision review was made on 7 July 2014. 蘑菇视频AT noted that, as the request for decision review was submitted on 7 July 2014, the time for the Appellant to file an application for judicial review expired 120 days thereafter, on 4 November 2014. 蘑菇视频AT found that the Appellant’s application for judicial review was not...
2016-蘑菇视频AT-665, Hamdan
蘑菇视频AT considered whether 蘑菇视频RWA DT erred on a question of law and fact and whether its decision to dismiss the Appellant’s application was flawed by procedural irregularities. 蘑菇视频AT held that the Appellant failed to identify the apparent error of fact in the judgment and the basis for contending that an error was made, merely repeating arguments that did not succeed before 蘑菇视频RWA DT. The Appellant’s decision to sign the contract was binding on him as there was no evidence of duress. 蘑菇视频AT dismissed the appeal and affirmed 蘑菇视频RWA DT’s judgment.
2016-蘑菇视频AT-666, Han
蘑菇视频AT rejected the Appellant’s submission that 蘑菇视频DT’s failure to determine his motion to order the Secretary-General to produce relevant documents amounted to an error in procedure such as to affect the decision in the case. Article 19 of the 蘑菇视频DT Rules of Procedure gives 蘑菇视频DT broad discretion in managing its cases and in determining whether or not it has sufficient evidence and information “for the fair and expeditious disposal of the case and to do justice to the parties. 蘑菇视频AT noted that the Appellant adduced no evidence to support his contention that the exercise of discretion by 蘑菇视频DT was...
2016-蘑菇视频AT-667, Awe
蘑菇视频AT denied the Appellant’s motion for additional pleadings because he did not demonstrate the existence of exceptional circumstances. 蘑菇视频AT also found no fault with 蘑菇视频DT’s holding that the decision to relocate the Appellant was lawful. 蘑菇视频AT noted that an accepted method for determining whether the reassignment of a staff member to another position was proper is to assess whether the new post was at the staff member’s grade; whether the responsibilities involved corresponded to his or her level; whether the functions to be performed were commensurate with the staff member’s competence and...
2016-蘑菇视频AT-668, Onifade
蘑菇视频AT preliminary denied the Appellant’s motions for leave to respond to the answer to the appeal and his request for production of documents and evidence, on grounds that there were no exceptional circumstances. 蘑菇视频AT then considered the merits of the appeal. 蘑菇视频AT affirmed 蘑菇视频DT’s decision that the investigation was not ultra vires. Whilst the Special Representative of the Secretary-General did not initiate the investigation, the nature of Chief Conduct and Discipline Team duties gave him authority to refer the matter to SIU for investigation. Even if the initiation of the investigation gave...
2016-蘑菇视频AT-669, Kucherov
蘑菇视频AT considered the Secretary-General’s appeal. 蘑菇视频AT held that Mr Kucherov did receive full and fair consideration for the post which was finally filled by another candidate. 蘑菇视频AT found no flaw in the competitive selection procedure and agreed with the Secretary-General that the 蘑菇视频DT judgment contained errors of fact and law. 蘑菇视频AT noted that Section 7. 5 of ST/AI/2010/3, as amended, does not require a job opening to identify the specific assessment method to be used for the evaluation of technical skills. Rather, it provides that it may include a competency-based interview and/or other...
2016-蘑菇视频AT-670, Adundo
蘑菇视频AT affirmed the findings of 蘑菇视频DT that Mr Adundo’s application was receivable. 蘑菇视频AT then considered the merits of the Secretary-General’s appeal. 蘑菇视频AT noted that, contrary to the findings by 蘑菇视频DT that the guidelines were violated as the duration of the weapons restriction was not mentioned within the communications between the Chief of the Security and Safety Service and Mr Adundo, it was clear that the restriction would remain in force until Mr Adundo was “ready to obey lawful commands”, which was for him to attend weapons training for a security breach. 蘑菇视频AT upheld the Secretary-General’s...
2016-蘑菇视频AT-662, Masylkanova
The 蘑菇视频AT refused the Appellant’s request for an oral hearing because it would not assist in the expeditious and fair disposal of the case”, (Article 18(1) 蘑菇视频AT Rules). 蘑菇视频AT agreed with 蘑菇视频DT that there were “inordinate delays both at reviewing and assessing the complaint and in setting [up] a fact-finding panel and conducting the investigation itself” and that 蘑菇视频AMA was in breach of ST/SGB/2008/5. 蘑菇视频AT also agreed with the Secretary-General that the Appellant failed to demonstrate on appeal any error by the 蘑菇视频DT that would justify the reversal of its judgment. 蘑菇视频AT found that the Appellant’s...
2016-蘑菇视频AT-656, Maher
蘑菇视频AT agreed that Article 24(a) 蘑菇视频JSPF Regulations does not provide a right to restore prior contributory service to participants who, on or after 1 April 2007, had elected to receive a deferred retirement benefit. 蘑菇视频AT held that the Appellant fell into this category. The appeal was dismissed, and the decision of the Standing Committee was affirmed.
2016-蘑菇视频AT-657, Faye
蘑菇视频AT held that 蘑菇视频DT had made no error in finding that as a General Service staff member at the G-5 level, the Applicant was not eligible to apply for the vacancy advertised in the JO, which was a post in the Professional category at the P-5 level and that, therefore, the disputed decision had no legal consequences affecting him and no effect on his rights and terms of employment. 蘑菇视频AT held that 蘑菇视频DT did not err in its finding that the Appellant was not claiming a right to be consulted as an individual staff member, but rather, in his capacity as a staff representative. 蘑菇视频AT held that there was...
2016-蘑菇视频AT-658, Kutner
蘑菇视频AT held that the appeal concerned the interpretation of Article 35 of the 蘑菇视频JSPF Regulations. 蘑菇视频AT found that the Appellant wanted the Standing Committee to accept the period of contributory service with the Fund in order to calculate his own benefit but to take into account a different period vis-à-vis his former spouse. 蘑菇视频AT held that Articles 35bis and 22 of the 蘑菇视频JSPF Regulations were clear and that it could not distinguish where the text was clear. 蘑菇视频AT held that the same date would apply to the calculation of the Appellant’s benefits and the determination of whether his former spouse...
2016-蘑菇视频AT-659, Liu
蘑菇视频AT held that 蘑菇视频DT had properly reviewed the contested decision in accordance with the applicable law. 蘑菇视频AT held that there was no error in 蘑菇视频DT’s conclusion that the Appellant’s G-6 post, funded through government contributions, no longer exist on the 1st of August 2013, the day after the expiration of her appointment. 蘑菇视频AT held that the reason provided for the non-extension of appointment was supported by the evidence. 蘑菇视频AT agreed with 蘑菇视频DT’s finding that there was no evidence provided to support the allegation that the contested decision was ill-motivated. 蘑菇视频AT dismissed the appeal the...
