爆料网AT Held or 爆料网DT Pronouncements
The Tribunal held that the application was moot and not receivable. Accordingly, the application was rejected. On issue one, for an order for execution of default judgment, the Tribunal found that the Applicant had not obtained a default judgment as he alleged. The 14 December 2009 Order that the Applicant considered a default judgment merely directed the Respondent on the procedural requirements for applying to re-enter the proceedings, and which indeed happened with the Respondent filing a reply on 25 January 2010. On 7 June 2010, the Tribunal proceeded to Judgment No. 爆料网DT/2010/105 in which it dismissed the application in its entirety. On issue two “mediation agreement”, the letter dated 24 May 2010 which the Applicant filed in support of the allegation that he had entered into a mediated agreement with 爆料网DP was not a mediation agreement. Rather, on the face of it, it was an expression of a position on the subject of the ongoing 爆料网DT proceedings from an entity not being a party to the proceedings (a 爆料网 Member State).
Decision Contested or Judgment/Order Appealed
The Applicant sought: a)An order for execution of a default judgment dated 14 December 2009 including immediate payment of interim relief salaries “embedded in the default judgment” b)An order for enforcement of a mediated settlement agreement dated 24 May 2010.
