Facts of the Case
Background
The appellant, dismissed in February 2008, sought condonation to file a rescission application 22 months late against a default order issued in February 2022. The delay was caused by defective prior applications and alleged illness of his trade union representative. The respondent opposed, citing prescription and lack of prospects of success.
