Parchment v Ford Motor Co Ltd: EAT 8 Jun 1998

Appeal against refusal of extension of time to lodge appeal.
Held: Refused. The appellant ‘obviously has been suffering and still suffers from considerable disability, but he is not somebody who I should regard as being incapable of dealing with his own affairs in any technical sense. It seems to me that in the circumstances there is no satisfactory explanation for the delay in lodging his Notice of Appeal in this case.’ On the papers the appeal would appear likely to have been refused anyway.
