Background
Three employees were dismissed in February/March 2013 following disciplinary proceedings. They believed a trade unionist had filed appeals on their behalf but discovered in November 2013 that no appeals had been filed. They then filed a condonation application on 26 November 2013 seeking permission to appeal out of time.
