Judgment No. 17

Decision

THE TRIBUNAL,
Rejecting any wider or contrary conclusions,
Declares the complaint to be receivable as to form;
Declares that it is competent;
Orders the decision taken to be rescinded and declares in law that it constitutes an abuse of rights causing prejudice to the complainant;
In consequence, should the defendant not reconsider the decision taken and renew the complainant's appointment, orders the said defendant to pay to the complainant the sum of US$15,500, plus children's allowance for two years, the whole together with interest at 4 per centum from 1 January 1955;
Orders the defendant Organisation to pay to the complainant the sum of US$300 by way of participation in the costs of his defence;
PRONOUNCING on the application to intervene made by M. Henquet;
Considering that such intervention is receivable in so far as it is made by M. Henquet in his own name;
That in this instance the fact that the intervener holds an indeterminate appointment and not a fixed-term appointment does not prevent the present dispute from bearing on principles applicable to the legal position of the whole staff;
Considering that the intervention is founded, in so far as recognised by the present judgment, orders the defendant Organisation to bear the expenses for which justification is provided by the intervener up to a maximum of US$40.
