On 23.04.2024, at 10:00, the Appeal Chamber held the public hearing of the case with register number (JR) 42 – 17/ 2018, dated 11.04.2023, regarding the request filed by the former assessee, Mrs. Antoneta Sevdari for the review of the decision of the Special Appeal Chamber (JR) no. 6, dated 28.02.2019.
During the presentation of the final conclusions, standing by the appeal grounds presented during the hearing of 17.04.2023, the Public Commissioner, in the end asked the Appeal Chamber the amendment of decision no. 42, dated 18.07.2018 of the Independent Qualification Commission and the dismissal from office of the applicant Antoneta Sevdari.
The legal representative of the applicant, Antoneta Sevdari stated that, based on the evaluation of the ECtHR, the appeal grounds are disproportionate for imposing the disciplinary measure, referring to the legitimate purpose of the re-evaluation process. According to the legal representative, the conclusion of the ECtHR is mandatory for implementation and for this reason, the appeal grounds of the Public Commissioner are no longer valid, because they cannot lead to imposing any disciplinary measures against Mrs. Antoneta Sevdari.
Eventually, Mrs. Antoneta Sevdari asked the Appeal Chamber to implement the decision of the European Court of Human Rights, by upholding the decision no. 42, dated 18.07.2018 of the Independent Qualification Commission, after it assessed that she has reached a trustable level in all three assessment criteria.
After hearing the final conclusions of the parties, the trial panel decided to withdraw to make the final decision, which shall be announced on 10.05.2024, at 13:00.
The public hearing shall take place at the premises of the Special Appeal Chamber, at: Bulevardi “Dëşhmorët e Kombit”, nr. 3. Tirana.
