Facts of the Case
Background
The applicant employer dismissed the respondent employee for misconduct. An arbitrator found the dismissal unlawful and ordered reinstatement or damages. The applicant appealed to the Labour Court but failed to file heads of argument, resulting in dismissal of the appeal. The applicant then brought a rescission application, again failing to file heads of argument, leading to this dismissal on procedural grounds.
