Euro Hotels (Thornton Heath) Ltd v Alam: EAT 20 Apr 2009

EAT PRACTICE AND PROCEDURE: Postponement or stay
PRACTICE AND PROCEDURE: Review
Employment Tribunal gave Judgment at a hearing in the absence of the Respondent. It held a review and refused to vary the Judgment. It erred in taking account of the Respondent’s ability to recover from its insurers, and in not accepting that the office had not made a call to the Respondent, the Respondent had made a diary error and sought a postponement before Judgment was made, and shortly thereafter a representative and the Respondent attended.
Substantive and review Judgments set aside, save for costs orders, and full hearing ordered. Observations on Rule 35 (review).
