- Court of Appeal
Extension of time to file the application for leave was granted because the short delay was satisfactorily explained as solicitor error and caused no prejudice; leave to appeal was declined because the proposed grounds did not disclose an arguable error of law — the Employment Court did not err in its application of interpretive principles to the collective agreements and correctly applied Idea Services in determining donning and doffing constitutes work — therefore there was no sufficient legal question warranting the Court of Appeal's intervention.
