Ii) Legal requirements Under regular circumstances, the procedural consequences of a reappointment process, in particular the denial of a hearing and a judicial review, as well as the reversal of the burden of proof, would violate the fundamental due process rights of the serving employees who are not reselected. These procedural reversals are justifiable by a transitional process that requires significant changes to the number of personnel, the organizational structure and/or the personnel composition of the public institution in question.
In a more recent decision, the Human Rights Chamber for Bosnia and Herzegovina departed from the Pellegrin precedent and admitted the case of a police officer who challenged his dismissal (Rusmir Džaferovic v The Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina (3 December 2003), CH/03/12932). 18 In international human rights law, the due process requirements for non-criminal proceedings are less explicitly defined than those for criminal proceedings. The basic guarantees described hereafter apply, however, to any due process of law.
In an established rule-of-law context, normal disciplinary 28 procedures are applied to ensure the removal of public employees who lack competence or integrity. The particular challenges of a transitional process generally overstrain these regular procedures, and the capacity and will of public institutions to self-reform are particularly limited in post-conflict or post-authoritarian situations. Nevertheless, the possibility of implementing the required personnel changes through the normal disciplinary procedures cannot be entirely discarded.
