Management evaluation: Pursuant to art. 8 of the Statute of the Dispute Tribunal, read together with staff rule 11.2(a), an applicant must, as a mandatory first step, request management evaluation of a contested decision before filing an application with the Dispute Tribunal (see the United Nations Appeal Tribunal (“UNAT”) in Planas 2010-UNAT-049, para. 23). The purpose of such management evaluation is primarily to allow the management to review, and possibly correct, an administrative decision, which an individual wishes to challenge, and thereby avoid unnecessary litigation before the Dispute Tribunal. Under art. 3.1(b) of the Dispute Tribunal’s Statute, as a former staff member of the United Nations, the Applicant may file an application with the Dispute Tribunal. However, no special exception is made for former staff members that releases the Applicant from the requirement that he must first request management evaluation before he files his application with the Dispute Tribunal. Definition of administrative decision: A contestable decision may arise when the Administration fails, or omits, to take proper action where an applicant can define a right for her or him to have such action be taken (see, for instance, Tabari 2010-UNAT-030).
