Facts of the Case

Background

The respondent was an employee of the first applicant facing misconduct allegations. The applicant sought to proceed with a disciplinary hearing, but the respondent filed an urgent chamber application seeking a stay of proceedings. The Labour Court granted a stay order on 13 May 2023. The applicant subsequently applied for rescission of that order, which was dismissed on 9 October 2023. The applicant now seeks leave to appeal that dismissal to the Supreme Court.
