    57th Session, 1985
    European Patent Organisation
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Summary

    Extract:

    The Tribunal will hold the internal means of redress to have been exhausted if the complainant has pursued them with all diligence but without being able within a reasonable period of time to obtain a result. In this case, for the Tribunal to entertain the complaint, the complainant would have to satisfy it that there was no objective prospect of the internal process being concluded within a reasonable time. He has not done so.

    failure to answer claim; internal appeal; internal remedies exhausted; reasonable time; receivability of the complaint; time limit;

    International Labour Organization
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Consideration 7

    Extract:

    "As the Tribunal observed in [Judgment 421] the question whether the action of the administration [...] was intended to have a contractual effect must be determined in the light of the circumstances in each case. In regard to the non-renewal of fixed-term contracts, it seems to the Tribunal that staff members would, in view of the practice, have come to rely on receiving reasonable notice as part of their contractual rights".

    Extract:

    "Before coming to the Tribunal again the complainant should await the Appeals Committee's report and the President's final decision. But he need not wait indefinitely. He may appeal directly to the Tribunal if one of two conditions is fulfilled: if the appeals body fails to report and there are grounds for believing that it will not do so within a reasonable lapse of time; or else if the President fails to take a final decision within sixty days of receiving the Appeals Body's report."

    48th Session, 1982
    International Labour Organization
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Considerations

    Extract:

    "Article VII[1] does not lay down an absolute rule. A complainant may abandon the internal proceedings even before a decision is taken and may appeal directly to the Tribunal when the appeals body fails to report and there is no reason to suppose from the evidence that it is likely to do so within a reasonable period. But it must be quite clear from the evidence that there is no decision, and only in quite exceptional cases will the Tribunal find that the condition is met."

    Reference(s)

    ILOAT reference: ARTICLE VII, PARAGRAPH 1, OF THE STATUTE

    Keywords:

    exception; failure to answer claim; implied decision; internal appeal; internal remedies exhausted; reasonable time; receivability of the complaint; time limit;



  • Judgment 451


    46th Session, 1981
    Pan American Health Organization
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Consideration 8

    Extract:

    "The rule that a complaint shall be receivable only if the internal means of redress have been exhausted is not a hard and fast one even though the Statute does not allow any derogation from it. If a complainant does all in her power to procure a decision and if nevertheless the internal appeals body either by its statements or by its conduct evinces an intention not to give a decision within a reasonable period, justice requires that an exception should be made. [...] When the delay is inordinate and inexcusable, such an intention can be inferred."

    Keywords:

    administrative delay; failure to answer claim; implied decision; internal appeal; internal remedies exhausted; reasonable time; receivability of the complaint; time limit;



  • Judgment 408


    44th Session, 1980
    Pan American Health Organization
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Consideration 1

    Extract:

    A complainant may appeal directly to the Tribunal "provided the appeals body cannot or will not give a decision within a reasonable period. That it cannot or will not do so must, however, be quite clear from the circumstances. Only by way of exception will the Tribunal allow that the condition is met."

    Keywords:

    direct appeal to tribunal; exception; failure to answer claim; internal appeals body; reasonable time; receivability of the complaint;



  • Judgment 322


    39th Session, 1977
    European Organisation for the Safety of Air Navigation
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Summary

    Extract:

    For reasons of a personal nature, the complainant waited six years before informing the organisation of the birth of an illegitimate child. He claimed retroactive payment of allowances from the date of the birth. The Tribunal finds that he has lost his right to retroactive payment, since he did not act within a reasonable period of time. To claim a lump-sum payment, after waiting several years, is to disregard the purpose of the provisions on family allowance.

    Keywords:

    dependent child; family allowance; non-retroactivity; purpose; reasonable time; request by a party; time limit;

    Consideration 3

    Extract:

    "It is immaterial that according to [the relevant provision] an official may not waive his right to remuneration. [...] It is through his own delay that he may lose his right to family allowance, and not because of any express or implied waiver on his part."

    Keywords:

    dependent child; family allowance; reasonable time; request by a party; time bar; time limit;



  • Judgment 53


    9th Session, 1961
    World Health Organization
    Extracts: EN, FR
    Full Judgment Text: EN, FR

    Consideration 4

    Extract:

    "It is open to the organization to require by decision taken in reasonable time reimbursement in whole or in part of the overpayment, account being taken of all the circumstances of the case, including inter alia the bona or mala fides of the official, the nature of the error, the degree of negligence of the organization and of the official and the hardship caused to the official by any subsequent recovery in consequence of an error of the organization."

    Keywords:

    complainant; general principle; good faith; negligence; organisation; reasonable time; recovery of overpayment; request by a party; time limit;
