The 1st respondent (employer) applied for postponement to allow its legal practitioner time to get instructions, having been engaged at the 11th hour. The applicant (employee) opposed, arguing the employer was barred for failing to file its response and Heads of Arguments and thus could not be heard on the postponement application.
