2013-UNAT-391, Elasoud

UNAT Held or UNDT Pronouncements

UNAT considered Mr Elasoud’s application for revision of judgment No. 2011-UNAT-173. UNAT held that the grounds set out by Mr Elasoud did not come within Article 11(1) of the UNAT Statute, and he did not specify any fact of which he and UNAT were not aware when his appeal was considered. UNAT held that a review of the application showed that Mr Elasoud merely disagreed with the decision of UNAT. UNAT dismissed the application for revision.

Decision Contested or Judgment/Order Appealed

In judgment No. 2011-UNAT-173, UNAT affirmed the UNDT judgment which had found the application not receivable.

Legal Principle(s)

No party may seek revision of a judgment merely because that party is dissatisfied with the pronouncement of UNAT and wants to have a second round of litigation.
