    Consideration 1

    Extract:

    "According to Article VII of the Statute of the Tribunal a complaint shall not be receivable unless the internal means of redress have been exhausted and the complaint was filed within ninety days after the notification of the impugned decision.

    European Organisation for the Safety of Air Navigation
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Consideration 12

    Extract:

    The article was amended by an office note. "The complainant's request for an interpretation of [the article] is a request for a decision relating to him; it may be made at any time and is not subject to any time limit. [The administration] never gave any decision upon the interpretation of [this] article [...] or upon the relationship to it of the office notices; this [...] is the substantial question in this case."

    Consideration 1

    Extract:

    37th Session, 1976
    International Patent Institute
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Consideration 1

    Extract:

    "It is immaterial that the Appeals Committee may have erred in hearing the appeal. The fact is that it gave its views and consequently the complainant had recourse to the internal means of redress available to him."

    Keywords:

    consequence; internal appeal; internal appeals body; internal remedies exhausted; mistaken hearing of merits; receivability of the complaint; recommendation; time bar; time limit;

    Consideration 1

    Extract:

    "Although the Tribunal must determine whether its own time limit for filing a complaint has been respected, it will not review the observance of procedural rules in internal bodies. It merely notes that such bodies have heard the appeal. The most that can be said is that matters would have been different had the Director-General in his final decision expressed reservations on the propriety of the appeals procedure."

    Keywords:

    internal appeal; internal appeals body; judicial review; procedure before the tribunal; receivability of the complaint; time limit;

  • Judgment 270


    36th Session, 1976
    European Organisation for the Safety of Air Navigation
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Consideration 3

    Extract:

    "In view of the explanations which it contains, and in particular the reference to a circular subsequent to the notification [contested by complainant], the reply [by the organisation] is not a mere confirmation of that notification. In fact it is a new decision which gave rise to a new time limit for appeal."

    Keywords:

    confirmatory decision; internal appeal; internal remedies exhausted; new time limit; receivability of the complaint; time limit;



  • Judgment 259


    35th Session, 1975
    International Telecommunication Union
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Considerations

    Extract:

    The decision in question, which merely upheld an earlier decision, could "not give rise to new time limits for the lodging of an appeal by the complainant."

    Keywords:

    confirmatory decision; decision; internal appeal; new time limit; receivability of the complaint; time bar; time limit;

    Considerations

    Extract:

    Under the applicable provision, the complainant had a period of six weeks in which to appeal against the decision which he regarded as detrimental. "No appeal having been lodged within that period, the decision had [...] become final [...] when the complainant asked for review of his case. The Secretary-General and subsequently the Appeal Board therefore acted lawfully in dismissing the request on that ground." No exceptional circumstances warranted a derogation from the prescribed time limits.

    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Considerations

    Extract:

    The complaint was filed "clearly after the expiry of the time limit set by Article VII, paragraph 2, of the Statute of the Tribunal. It is declared irreceivable in accordance with Article 8, paragraph 3, of the Rules of court, notwithstanding the absence of any reply by the organization on the merits."

    34th Session, 1975
    World Meteorological Organization
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Considerations

    Extract:

    The complainant "did not appeal to the Tribunal against either decision within the statutory time limits. The decisions have therefore become final and are no longer open to appeal unless the Secretary-General exercises his power to reopen the case."

    Keywords:

    case reopened; decision; exception; internal remedies exhausted; receivability of the complaint; time bar; time limit;



  • Judgment 211

    Consideration 1

    Extract:

    "The complainant has failed to deliver a rejoinder within the time-limit allowed. The Tribunal will therefore consider the case on the dossier as it is."

    Keywords:

    closure of written proceedings; delay; rejoinder; time limit;



  • Judgment 200


    30th Session, 1973
    United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Considerations

    Extract:

    The complainant made no appeal within the time limit against the decision to confirm his transfer. "That decision has thus become final." He did impugn another decision in time which had no connection with the first decision, but that will not extend the period within which an appeal may be lodged against the first decision.

    internal remedies exhausted; new time limit; receivability of the complaint; time bar; time limit;



  • Judgment 196


    29th Session, 1972
    United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Consideration 2

    Extract:

    The appeal addressed to the Director-General was dismissed on 15 April. Whatever the date of the impugned decision, "the complainant could properly file an appeal as from 15 April [...] and consequently the claims he submitted to the Appeals Board on 27 April [...] were receivable. [H]ence the argument that the appeal was irreceivable affords no grounds for contending that the internal means of resisting the decision were not exhausted."

    Keywords:

    date; decision; internal appeal; receivability of the complaint; start of time limit; time limit;



  • Judgment 181


    27th Session, 1971
    United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Consideration 4

    Extract:

    If the time limit had expired, "the Director-General could indeed have refused to consider the complainant's protest. However, the ruling given [...] on his instructions makes no reference to the expiry of the time limit. Failure to observe a time limit laid down by the [applicable provision] is not [a flaw] which can be pleaded at a later stage in the procedure."

    Keywords:

    flaw; internal appeal; mistaken hearing of merits; procedural flaw; time bar; time limit;

    Consideration 3

    Extract:

    The date on which the appeal is despatched is the important one. "[I]n laying down that staff members must submit their appeal in writing to the [competent body] within 15 or 30 days, [the applicable provision] implies that the important one is that on which the appeal is despatched."

    Keywords:

    date; internal appeal; interpretation; receivability of the complaint; time limit;



  • Judgment 165


    25th Session, 1970
    Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Summary

    Extract:

    When first appointed in March 1952, the complainant was not enrolled in the United Nations Joint Staff Pension Fund. Although this decision was not at the time notified, it was confirmed and notified by the letter of January 1957 which informed the complainant that he would become a member of the pension fund from the following month. The date of receipt of that letter was the date at which the statutory period began to run for the lodging of an appeal. Filed in November 1968, the appeal was time-barred and the dismissing of the appeal was not tainted with illegality.

    Keywords:

    date of notification; decision; forfeiture of benefit; internal appeal; participation; receivability of the complaint; start of time limit; time bar; time limit; unjspf;

    Summary

    Extract:

    When first appointed in May 1951, the complainant was not enrolled in the United Nations Joint Staff Pension Fund. Although this decision was not at the time notified, it was confirmed and notified by the letter of January 1957 which informed the complainant that he would become a member of the pension fund from the following month. The date of receipt of that letter was the date at which the statutory period began to run for the lodging of an appeal. Filed in November 1968, the appeal was time-barred and the dismissing of the appeal was not tainted with illegality.

  • Judgment 154


    23rd Session, 1970
    International Labour Organization
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Consideration 2(B)

    Extract:

    It is stated in their contracts that officials are initially appointed to a given post, subject to possible transfer subsequently. "The wording [initially, subsequently] of this provision does not mean that in every case an official must perform the duties of the original post for a certain period of time before being required to accept re-assignment. If the first assignment appears straight away to be unsuitable, there is nothing to prevent his immediate re-assignment. Any other solution might be as damaging to the official as to the organisation."

    Keywords:

    appointment; assignment; interpretation; organisation's interest; time limit; transfer;

    Consideration 2(C)

    Extract:

    The Director-General was not obliged to postpone the complainant's re-assignment because of alleged ill health. The disorders cited did not afford sufficient proof that he was unable to comply with the transfer order. The medical certificate bears a date later than the date of the complainant's scheduled departure. "In any event, it was not incumbent on the organisation to carry out automatically any inquiry into the complainant's state of health."

    Keywords:

    health reasons; medical examination; organisation's duties; time limit; transfer;



  • Judgment 140


    22nd Session, 1969
    Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Consideration 1

    Extract:

    "After the close of the written proceedings the complainant communicated to the Tribunal a statement [...] signed [by a third party]. In principle the Tribunal takes account of all documents produced before the opening of the session at which the relevant case is to be judged. In the case at issue, the Tribunal has no reason not to take the statement into consideration. At the most it might ask the complainant to certify its authenticity, but this is unnecessary since the document in question cannot affect the outcome of the proceedings."

    Keywords:

    admissibility of evidence; appraisal of evidence; closure of written proceedings; disclosure of evidence; receivability of the complaint; time limit;



  • Judgment 130


    21st Session, 1969
    United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Considerations

    Extract:

    Failing any action to resist the decision within the prescribed time-limits, the decision not to renew the complainant's appointment became final and can no longer be challenged; consequently, all the complainant's links with the organization were severed from the date on which his contract expired.

    Keywords:

    complaint; consequence; internal remedies exhausted; receivability of the complaint; separation from service; time limit;



  • Judgment 123


    20th Session, 1968
    International Atomic Energy Agency
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Consideration 2

    Extract:

    "The Tribunal considers that within the meaning of [the applicable provision] two years of continuous service must be interpreted as a period of service as a staff member covered by the Staff Regulations and Rules." The complainant was so covered only by some of his contracts.

    Keywords:

    enforcement; interpretation; right; staff regulations and rules; time limit;
