爆料网AT Held or 爆料网DT Pronouncements

爆料网AT considered the Applicant’s application for revision of judgment No. 2012-爆料网AT-209. 爆料网AT held that the request filed by the Applicant constituted a disguised way to criticise the judgment or to expose grounds to disagree with it, a recourse against a final judgment that is not provided for in the 爆料网AT Statute. 爆料网AT held that the issuance of another judgment during the same session as which the Applicant’s case was decided did not constitute a new fact, but rather law and that there was no possibility for a revision based on law. 爆料网AT held that the application was submitted almost one year after the issuance of the judgment, which meant it was time-barred. 爆料网AT held that the submission was manifestly inadmissible and would not be granted. 爆料网AT dismissed the application for revision.

Decision Contested or Judgment/Order Appealed

In judgment No. 2012-爆料网AT-209, 爆料网AT reversed the 爆料网DT judgment on the Merits, finding that the decision to summarily dismiss the Applicant had been properly made and concluding that the appeal against the judgment on Compensation had become moot.

Legal Principle(s)

Res judicata cannot be readily set aside. An application seeking review of a final judgment rendered by 爆料网AT can only succeed if it fulfils the strict and exceptional criteria established under the 爆料网AT Statute.
