    UNDT/2024/016, Applicant

    Disciplinary measure or sanction Harassment (non-sexual) Sexual harassment Disciplinary matters / misconduct

    There is no evidence that the facts that were taken into consideration to substantiate the investigator’s finding of “prior conduct” were properly investigated up to the threshold of clear and convincing evidence. Therefore, the credibility assessment made by the Administration via the use of prior conduct evidence cannot stand, and the alleged prior conduct evidence was not considered by this Tribunal in its judicial review of the facts.
    With respect to the allegation that the Applicant sexually harassed V01, based on the 8 and 21 November 2017 emails, which confirm the Applicant’s...

    2023-UNAT-1321, Diana Kenoly, Carolyne Alany Rumah, Felix Kwame and Nicholas Kariuki Kinyanjui in respect of Roselyne Kayeke Oming (deceased)

    Death benefit Subject matter (ratione materiae) Oral hearings Administrative decision TEST -Rename- Benefits and entitlements-45 Jurisdiction / receivability (UNDT or first instance) Procedure (first instance and UNAT)

    The UNAT dismissed both the appeal and the cross-appeal.

    As to the Secretary-General's cross-appeal against the UNDT's decision on receivability, the UNAT held that the UNDT was correct not to dismiss the claims as unreceivable, but to investigate their merits. 

    Turning to the merits, the UNAT noted that death benefits under the Rules are not payable to beneficiaries nominated by a staff member, but to designated beneficiaries as defined by the Staff Rules (i.e. the surviving spouse or dependent children). The UNAT found that Mr. Oming survived Ms. Oming and the substantial preponderance of...

    Jurisdiction / receivability (UNAT) Interlocutory appeal Subject matter (ratione materiae) Staff selection (non-selection/non-promotion) Selection decision Suspension of action / interim measures

    UNAT noted that appeals from UNDT decisions on suspensions of action will only be receivable if UNDT, in adjudicating such applications, exceeded its competence or jurisdiction. UNAT held that the UNDT’s legal and factual reasoning fell entirely within its competence and jurisdiction. UNAT held that, although the Appellant’s claims addressed the merits of the UNDT judgment, they did not amount to claims that the UNDT exceeded its competence or jurisdiction. UNAT held that the appeal was not receivable. UNDT dismissed the appeal.

    2015-UNAT-531, Rangel

    Interlocutory or interim appeal / Appeal of UNDT order to UNAT Interim measure

    UNAT considered seven motions submitted by Ms Rangel prior to a judgment on the merits. On the two Motions for Interim Relief, UNAT held that Ms Rangel did not seek an interim measure for temporary relief consistent with the pronouncements of the ICJ Conciliation Committee, but rather she sought interim relief in cases where the Committee had dismissed her applications. UNAT held that since one of the two cumulative conditions under Article 9(4) of the UNAT Statute was not fulfilled, it did not need to further consider the second condition. UNAT denied the requests for interim relief. On the...
