2013-惇蹋厙AT-320

惇蹋厙AT Held or 惇蹋厙DT Pronouncements

惇蹋厙AT considered an application for revision of both judgment No. 2010-惇蹋厙AT-098 (underlying judgment) and judgment No. 2011-惇蹋厙AT-163 (judgment on application for revision). 惇蹋厙AT held that the application for revision of the underlying judgment was not receivable, as it was time-barred for not having been made within one year of the underlying judgment. 惇蹋厙AT held that the 惇蹋厙AT Statute and its Rules of Procedure did not provide for the revision of a judgment on revision and that to allow such an application would defeat the purpose of the one-year time limit. 惇蹋厙AT held that the application for revision of the judgment on application for revision was not receivable. 惇蹋厙AT dismissed the application.

Legal Principle(s)
