UNDT/2009/011, Sefraoui

UNAT Held or UNDT Pronouncements

UNDT held that it was only when the Applicant learned of the identity of the successful candidate that he could reasonably have apprehended that there were grounds for such a review. Time therefore runs from 2 March 2008. UNDT held that the time for filing the appeal ran from the time when the Applicant discovered the identity of the person which in turn gave rise to his apprehension that he had grounds for an appeal. Accordingly, his application for review was in time and his appeal is receivable.

Decision Contested or Judgment/Order Appealed

The Applicant’s non-promotion to the post at the P-4 level of Arabic Adviser, in the Arabic Translation Section, Language Service and Conference Services Division, Geneva.
