Facts of the Case

Background

The appellant appealed against a 2013 committee determination ordering reinstatement of 12 employees. The appeal was filed in July 2015, well outside the 21-day period prescribed by court rules. The appellant attempted to rely on a subsequent 2015 committee decision as the basis for the appeal, but the court found this was merely a confirmation that the committee was functus officio regarding the 2013 decision.
