Facts of the Case

Background

The appellant was employed as a Night Auditor by the respondent and was dismissed after being found guilty of misconduct. He appealed to the Labour Court, arguing that he was denied access to crucial evidence (an audit report) and that procedural irregularities occurred during the disciplinary process. The court struck off the appeal, holding that these were procedural issues requiring review, not appeal.
