The High Court granted leave to appeal limited to the legal question whether an employer, as a witness, may recover business losses for attending a Small Claims Tribunal hearing because this is a contentious question of law that the tribunal did not address; the court held the tribunal properly required evidence (eg. business registration) to establish the employer's existence and did not err in refusing to adjourn for the other case, so those grounds fail.
