Facts of the Case
Background
The applicant company sought leave to appeal to the Supreme Court against a Labour Court decision that granted condonation to the respondent for late noting of an appeal. The respondent had been delayed by approximately one year and three months in filing his appeal, attributing the delay to attending to a criminal case initiated by one of the applicant's directors.
