Facts of the Case

Background

The applicant sought condonation for a two-week delay in filing a review application against a Labour Officer's determination. The dispute between the parties originated in 2010 and had gone through multiple court levels. The court found the delay inordinate, the explanation unsatisfactory, and the intended review grounds to have poor prospects of success.
