Chambers-Mills v Allied Bakeries: CA 26 Nov 2009

The claimant renewed orally her request for leave to appeal against the EAT which had upheld loss of her claim, after the Employment Tribunal had found her conduct of the proceedings unreasonable in failing to co-operate in a medical enquiry into her discrimination.
Held: The test in Blockbuster was applicable and had been correctly applied. However she had not been given sufficient notice that her application might be struck out, and leave was given.
