Facts of the Case
Background
The respondents, formerly employed by Myramah Farming (Pvt) Ltd t/a Cottzim, claimed unlawful termination. After conciliation failed and an arbitration award was made in their favour, the appellant appealed. A point in limine was raised that "Cottzim" is not a registered legal person and thus the arbitral proceedings were a nullity.
