EAT Practice and Procedure : Postponement or Stay – The four decisions of Employment Judges to order, and to refuse to postpone, a 5 day hearing were set aside. The Employment Judges took account of an incorrect factor, holding that the Appellants had agreed the dates when they had not. On the parties’ agreement that the EAT should now decide the matter, on the full material today, the application for a postponement was allowed. Costs awarded to the Respondent under Employment Tribunal rule 40(1) and EAT rule 34A(2)(c) as the postponement had been caused by the Appellants.
