Facts of the Case

Background

The applicant sought leave to appeal a decision of the Labour Court handed down on 26 July 2019. The application contained procedural defects including incorrectly stating the judge's name, failing to offer security for costs, and using the wrong form (court application instead of chamber application). The 2nd respondent raised these defects as points in limine.
