UNDT/2020/191

UNAT Held or UNDT Pronouncements

The email identified by the Applicant as the contested administrative decision does not constitute a fresh decision but a mere restatement of a previous email. It therefore cannot be considered to produce consequences on the legal order and is therefore not a challengeable administrative decision. The Applicant failed to contest the assignment of her current functions when notified to her. Therefore, the Applicant would be barred from contesting at this point that such assignment was in non-compliance with her contractual rights or conditions of employment.

Decision Contested or Judgment/Order Appealed

Refusal to reassing the Applicant.

Legal Principle(s)

The burden of identifying the contested administrative decision rests on the Applicant.

Outcome

Dismissed as not receivable
