Facts of the Case
Background
The applicant filed an application for condonation and leave to appeal under case number LC/H/404/24. The respondent raised a point in limine arguing that a previous application for leave to appeal under LCH 231/24 had been deemed abandoned by the Registrar in terms of Rule 46(b) of the Labour Court Rules, 2017, and therefore the present application was improperly before the court.
