The applicant, a government ministry, failed to file a Notice of Response to the respondent's appeal and failed to file heads of arguments as required by Rule 19 of the Labour Court Rules. The applicant sought condonation for this non-compliance, claiming the documents were lost due to office relocation between two buildings sharing a registry.
