Background
The applicant, already confirmed as Secretary to the Liquor Licensing Board by a 2012 Labour Court judgment, sought an interdict to prevent the Civil Service Commission from advertising and filling his position. The respondents advertised the position in July 2014 despite the extant court order confirming the applicant's appointment.
