UNDT/2010/075, Ghahremani

UNAT Held or UNDT Pronouncements

The contested decision was linked to the decision to bar the applicant from entering the VIC in October 1999, when he was no longer a staff member of UNOV. Hence, the decision to deny his counsel access to the applicant’s OSF did not affect and could not have affected his terms of appointment. The application was thus neither receivable before the UNAT nor before the UNDT. Outcome: The application was rejected.

Decision Contested or Judgment/Order Appealed

The application deals with the decision taken by UNOV in 2006 to deny the applicant’s counsel access to his OSF and other documents in relation to the decision to bar the applicant from entering the Vienna International Centre (VIC) in October 1999. The applicant was a former staff member of UNOV and he held a Special Service Agreement with UNIDO in October 1999. In June 2008, the applicant filed an appeal before the former UNAT; his case was transferred to the UNDT in January 2010.
