Judgment No. 708
Decision
The application is dismissed.
Considerations
Extract:
The applicant states correctly that "the Tribunal has specifically ruled mistake of law an inadmissible ground for review". He argues, in the words which the Tribunal used in Judgment 570, that "the principle of finality ... does not go so far as to require that errors arising from accident or inadvertence or the like can never be corrected". It is unlikely that a mistake of law would arise through accident or inadvertence. In any case in which it does arise the Tribunal will consider which principle should prevail. In the present case the applicant does not identify any statement of law in Judgment 636 which could conceivably be said to have been made through accident or inadvertence.
