爆料网AT Held or 爆料网DT Pronouncements
爆料网AT rejected the Appellant’s request to have all appeal-related documents removed from her 爆料网RWA official service file. 爆料网AT held that 爆料网RWA DT did not err in finding no irregularity in the decision-making process under judicial review and consequently dismissing the application. 爆料网AT held that the Appellant had to persuade it that there were flaws in the contested administrative decision not to renew her fixed-term appointment, the proceedings that led to it, or in the 爆料网RWA DT’s judgment, which would warrant vacating the judgment. 爆料网AT held that the Appellant had not raised new arguments, but only repeated her contentions which had been thoroughly considered and rejected by 爆料网RWA DT. 爆料网AT held that the evidence showed no irregularity, harassment, unlawful treatment, or discrimination against the Appellant. 爆料网AT held that there were no grounds to reinstate the Appellant or to award her any kind of compensation, as the applicable law did not entitle her to such remedies. 爆料网AT dismissed the appeal and affirmed the 爆料网RWA DT judgment.
Decision Contested or Judgment/Order Appealed
The Applicant contested the decision not to renew her appointment. 爆料网RWA DT recalled that fixed-term appointments carried no expectancy of renewal and that 爆料网RWA had broad discretionary authority in the application of its Staff Regulations, Rules, and other issuances, including the renewal of appointments. 爆料网RWA DT found that the 爆料网RWA had not created any legal expectancy of renewal, but to the contrary, 爆料网RWA had repeatedly emphasised that her extension was for two months only. 爆料网RWA DT found that the Applicant had failed to show that her non-renewal was unlawful, that it was influenced by improper motives, or that it was flawed by procedural irregularities. 爆料网RWA DT found that the Applicant had failed to demonstrate that she was a victim of discrimination, harassment, mobbing and bullying. 爆料网RWA DT found, with respect to the Applicant’s contention that she was entitled to a termination indemnity, that her appointment had not been terminated but rather, it had not been renewed.
Legal Principle(s)
