  • Judgment 1485

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

    Consideration 5

    Extract:

    The complainant's claim to moral damages fails because he is not "challenging any final administrative decision or decisions and because its wording is too vague for it to be entertained."

    Keywords:

    claim; vague claim;



  • Judgment 1450


    79th Session, 1995
    European Patent Organisation
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Consideration 20

    Extract:

    Having been denied permanent appointments, the complainants are seeking compensation failing reinstatement. The EPO pleads that the claim is irreceivable for failure to exhaust the internal remedies open to them. "The EPO fails in its preliminary objection to the complainants' claim to damages. [...] It may not refuse the complainants access to the appeal procedure on the grounds that they are 'auxiliary' staff, yet say that they ought, in what amounted to preliminary appeal [...] to have demarcated the full ambit of any future litigation."

    Consideration 20

    Extract:

    Having been denied permanent appointments, the complainants are seeking compensation failing reinstatement. The EPO pleads that the claim is irreceivable for failure to exhaust the internal remedies open to them. "The EPO fails in its preliminary objection to the complainants' claim to damages. [...] The organisation must realise, it is precisely in cases like this, about termination of employment, that the Tribunal may [...] itself award damages if it deems reinstatement impossible."

    application of law ex officio; claim; internal remedies exhausted; material damages; receivability of the complaint; reinstatement; subsidiary;

    Consideration 3

    Extract:

    "Some of the complainant's [...] procedural and substantive objections [rely on] claims and pleas [presented by] other staff whose appeals also went to the Appeals Committee.

  • Judgment 1435


    79th Session, 1995
    World Health Organization
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Consideration 10

    Extract:

    The complainant wants the Tribunal to set aside the appointment of an internal candidate to a post he applied for and challenges the promotion of that candidate. "The complainant has not on any grounds challenged that promotion by way of an internal appeal and he has therefore failed to exhaust the internal remedies available to him. What is more, he has failed to show that he was adversely affected by the promotion. So the Tribunal will not in the context of this application determine whether or not the promotion was valid."

    absence of final decision; cause of action; claim; internal appeal; internal remedies exhausted; lack of injury; receivability of the complaint;



  • Judgment 1433

    Consideration 8

    Extract:

    "As to his further claims in his rejoinder, the Tribunal observes that [...] the complainant neither challenged [a given claim] in his internal appeal [...] nor set out the claims in the form introducing the present complaint. He has made the claims in internal appeals which are still pending, and the claims are therefore at present irreceivable under Article VII(1) of the Tribunal's Statute because he has failed to exhaust the internal means of redress."

    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Consideration 4

    Extract:

    Since the complainant's grade is P.2 he "has no locus standi in challenging any new salary scales applicable to the general service category of staff. Because he belongs to another category of staff the revision of those scales cannot cause him injury."

    Consideration 11

    Extract:

    Extract:

    The complainant is seeking material and moral damages. The Tribunal observes that she made no such claim during the internal appeals proceedings and holds that her claim "is irreceivable under Article VII(1) of the Tribunal's Statute because she has not exhausted the internal means of appeal."

  • Judgment 1263


    75th Session, 1993
    United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Considerations 2-3

    Extract:

    The organization contends that one of [the complainant's] claims is irreceivable for failure to exhaust the internal means of redress. It observes that neither did he make a written protest on that score or an appeal to the Appeals Board. The claim was not even mentioned in the cause of the original proceedings which led to an earlier judgment of the Tribunal on a case also brought by the complainant. He does not deny that he made no internal appeal but merely asserts that it was discriminatory and unlawful not to grant him satisfaction. "So his complaint is indisputably irreceivable under this head."

    Keywords:

    claim; internal appeal; internal appeals body; internal remedies exhausted; judgment of the tribunal; receivability of the complaint;

    Consideration 4

    Extract:

    "Identity of purpose means that what the complainant is seeking is what he would have obtained had his earlier suit succeeded. And it is not the actual working of the decision that matters but the complainant's intent."

    Keywords:

    claim; complaint; criteria; receivability of the complaint; res judicata; same purpose;

    Consideration 6

    Extract:

    "His claim to material damages for failure to distribute [a circular] is made for the first time in this complaint and did not form the subject of prior appeal to the Director-General. It is irreceivable because he has failed to exhaust the internal means of redress."

    Keywords:

    claim; iloat statute; internal remedies exhausted; new claim; receivability of the complaint;



  • Judgment 1233


    74th Session, 1993
    United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Consideration 9

    Extract:

    The complainant seeks the quashing of her dismissal for reasons of health. Such dismissal, she maintains, was wrong unless her incapacity was total. The claim "is receivable because several times she sought the quashing of her dismissal and put the matter to the Appeals Board. Though she did withdraw several appeals that were before the Board she never expressly waived her objections to dismissal."

    Keywords:

    claim; health reasons; internal appeal; internal remedies exhausted; receivability of the complaint; termination of employment; termination of employment for health reasons; waiver of right of appeal; withdrawal of suit;



  • Judgment 1221


    74th Session, 1993
    United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Consideration 4

    Extract:

    Under challenge is a passage from a memorandum which the complainant alleges changed the duties of her post. She seeks the quashing of that text. Such a claim is irreceivable. "A staff member may challenge a text only if it amounts to a decision and affects him adversely. [...] The fact of the matter is that no decision was taken and her claim to the striking out of the [text] cannot be entertained."

    Keywords:

    absence of final decision; cause of action; claim; condition; receivability of the complaint;



  • Judgment 1213


    74th Session, 1993
    International Labour Organization
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Consideration 3

    Extract:

    The complainant is claiming assignment to a specific post. The meaning of Article VIII of the Tribunal's Statute, "as the case law has construed it, is that the Tribunal may not order an organisation to put a staff member on any particular post. All it may do is set aside an unlawful decision putting someone on a post or refusing to do so or order specific performance where the organisation has failed to discharge an obligation. In this case [...] the complainant's claim [...] fails because it is irreceivable."

    World Health Organization
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Consideration 20

    Extract:

    "Further claims [from one of the complainants] to a ruling on the Organization's alleged failure to deal with the issues in his statements of appeal and to 'directions' to the administration 'in the interest of justice' do not constitute proper forms of relief and therefore will not be entertained."

    Keywords:

    claim; compensation; failure to answer claim; internal appeal; receivability of the complaint;



  • Judgment 1149


    72nd Session, 1992
    International Telecommunication Union
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Consideration 4

    Extract:

    "According to the case law, the scope of claims to the Tribunal may not go beyond that of the claims that formed part of the internal appeal, since any claim that goes further is barred under the rule in Article VII(1) of the Tribunal's Statute that the complainant must have exhausted the internal means of redress."

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

    Consideration 3

    Extract:

    "The complainant has failed, however, to identify any decision of the organization's which in her submission constitutes breach of the terms of her appointment or of the FAO Regulations or Rules and which causes her injury. The Tribunal will therefore not entertain her claims under that head."

    cause of action; claim; complaint; lack of injury;



  • Judgment 801


    61st Session, 1987
    European Patent Organisation

    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Consideration 11

    Extract:

    The complainant's claims to "effective measures preventing further persecution" and recognition of his right to go back to his post in The Hague are irreceivable because he is not challenging any decision adversely affecting him.

    Keywords:

    cause of action; claim; no cause of action; receivability of the complaint;



  • Judgment 666


    56th Session, 1985
    European Patent Organisation
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Consideration 2

    Extract:

    In this case, "the complainants' pleas and claims are not stated in identical terms, but in substance their case is the same. [...] All three complainants are in the same factual position. [...] A further fact that is material, in view of the nature of their claims, is that all three are married and have children [...] The material issue in the three cases is in essence the same and the Tribunal will rule on the single legal issue which the three complaints raise."

    Keywords:

    claim; difference; identical facts; joinder;



  • Judgment 663


    56th Session, 1985
    European Patent Organisation
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Consideration 1

    Extract:

    "Although there are some differences between the four complaints, which impugn different decisions and put forward not quite identical claims, the decisions do form a single pattern of which each complaint challenges different elements, all four being closely and indeed inextricably linked by an identity of substance. They all raise the same preliminary issue, and one on which the Tribunal may give a single ruling, namely the receivability of a complaint challenging a general decision by the Council."

    Keywords:

    claim; difference; joinder;
