    On February 19, 2019, the Appeal Chamber held the public hearing of case (JR) no. 17/2018, dated 13.09.2018, corresponding to the appeal of the Public Commissioner against decision no. 42, dated 18.07.2018 of the Independent Qualification Commission related to the transitional re-evaluation of the assessee Ms. Antoneta Sevdari.

    During this hearing the assessee assessed that the submission upon which she was acquainted at the previous hearing did not present any information that could lead to doubts on her incompetency in proficiency terms.

    Following the termination of the judicial review, in order to provide the necessary time to the Public Commissioner and assessee to prepare their final conclusions, the adjudication panel decided to adjourn the hearing on Monday, 25.02.2019, at 10.00 h.
