Facts of the Case
Background
The applicant, a former employee of the Audit Office, was dismissed for misconduct including persistent late coming and insubordination. After his appeal was dismissed by the Labour Court in 2020, he sought condonation to file a late application for review of the disciplinary proceedings, claiming his former lawyers did not advise him that both appeal and review could be pursued simultaneously.
