EAT Practice and Procedure – Review
A request for a review was made out of time following a default judgment. The Chairman rejected it on time grounds alone without appearing to take into account the reasons put forward for delay, or the merits of the case, both of which should be considered when deciding if time should be extended for such an application. Further, the Chair expressly took into account a consideration which appeared irrelevant. Thus the matter remitted for a fresh decision to be taken.
