Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court ruled that the seniority and promotion of individuals with favorable judgments from the Central Administrative Tribunal, confirmed by the Court, must be upheld and cannot be altered. The Court emphasized that the revised seniority lists issued in March 2001 must recognize the finality of prior judgments, restoring the applicants to their original seniority. This decision reinforces the principle that once a judgment attains finality, it must be respected and implemented without alteration.
