EAT PRACTICE AND PROCEDURE – Review
The Appellants were in administration at the time of the hearing. Although we had a skeleton argument from counsel there was no appearance by the Appellants. The Appellants – the employers – failed to enter an appearance. Their attempt to appeal on the basis that they misunderstood correspondence was turned down by HHJ Peter Clark. They did not appeal that. Their application for review was eight weeks after time. Appeal was on the basis the Employment Tribunal Chairman not doing a balancing act and should have exercised discretion to allow the review. The appeal was dismissed.
