UNAT Held or UNDT Pronouncements

The members of the IJC were informed that the Applicant’s cases had been transferred to the UNDT from the Joint Appeals Board and that they may have had an interest to join in as parties in the case, pursuant to Article 11 of the Rules of Procedure. The information communicated to the members of the IJC could not be construed as amounting to any impropriety, less still a conflict of interest, within the meaning of Article 27 of the Rules of Procedure. The application was rejected because it was merely a repetition of the application dismissed by Judgment No. UNDT/2009/005.

The Applicant challenged the decision of the Secretary-General not to nominate him as a representative of the staff on the Internal Justice Council (IJC). The Applicant also challenged all decisions taken by the IJC as in the Applicant’s view the IJC was “illegally constituted”.
