Nyathi v Secretary of State for Justice: EAT 1 May 2018

PRACTICE AND PROCEDURE – Absence of Party
The Tribunal was not obliged to make any more adjustments to its procedure than it did for a disabled Claimant. The Tribunal erred in not considering whether to cause a telephone call to be made to enquire as to the Claimant’s reasons for not attending a hearing. However, that error made no difference to the outcome.
