Al Bilad newspaper The court cancels the “work” decision to stop the “unemployment” of a female citizen – 2024-04-26 10:03:06

The Grand Administrative Court ruled to cancel the contested decision issued by the Ministry of Labor to stop the plaintiff’s unemployment benefit, with its consequences, most notably the redisbursement of that benefit from the date of its cessation.
Details indicate that the plaintiff filed her lawsuit against the Ministry of Labor, requesting that the decision to stop disbursing unemployment benefits be canceled and that it be redisbursed retroactively from the date of its cessation.
The plaintiff was surprised when the defendant, the Ministry of Labor, dropped her right to receive unemployment benefits, claiming that she had rejected two job opportunities that were offered to her in the same month. The plaintiff complained about that decision, but her grievance was rejected, which prompted her to file her lawsuit.
The court discussed the case received in the minutes of its sessions, and the defendant’s representative attended and submitted a response memorandum in which he requested that the case be dismissed, indicating that the plaintiff had rejected the job opportunities that were provided to her. For her part, the plaintiff insisted in her statement of claim and her response to the defendant’s memorandum that she would not reject the job opportunities offered to her.
Whereas the defendant administration is the one that keeps the files and records that have a decisive impact on this dispute in terms of proving the suitability of the jobs offered to the plaintiff and her rejection of those opportunities, and the court was not presented with any evidence that would lead to reaching the truth for the work of judicial oversight regarding the preponderance of the validity of the contested decision and the soundness of its conclusion. The defendant did not request that she be able to prove this through other legal means of proof, which led the court to decide to cancel the appealed decision issued by the defendant to stop the unemployment benefit for the plaintiff, with the consequences that would result from that, most notably the redisbursement of that benefit from the date of its cessation. The defendant was obligated to pay attorney fees and fees.
