IN THE LABOUR COURT OF ZIMBABWE	  JUDGMENT NO LC/H/496/2014

In the matter between:

EDWARD DZUMBUNU					 		 APPELLANT

Versus

LYONS ZIMBABWE (PRIVATE) LIMITED				RESPONDENT

Before The Honourable B S Chidziva	:	Judge

The Appellant in Person

For the Respondent	A K Maguchu (Legal Practitioner)

CHIDZIVA J:

This is an appeal against the decision of the Managing Director. From the Managing Director the appellant appealed to the Chief Executive Officer who appointed the Human Resources officer to deal with the matter.

This court cannot deal with the decision of the Managing Director which has already been appealed against.

Furthermore when the appellant appealed to the Managing Director he was not challenging the verdict but the penalty. This penalty was confirmed by the Managing Director as well as the Human Resources Officer. The appellant cannot therefore approach this court challenging the verdict when he only challenged the penalty in the last hearing at his place of employment.

In the light of the foregoing therefore, it is hereby ordered that:

The appeal be and is hereby dismissed for lack of merit.
