Chairperson of the CCMA Governing Body and Others v Phoshoko (6029/2019) [2022] ZALMPPHC 57 (28 October 2022)

The court found that the order granted on 20 May 2021 was erroneously made in the absence of the applicants, without the CCMA record being filed, and in a matter over which the High Court lacked jurisdiction. The respondent conceded the existence of a patent error. The court held that rescission was warranted under Rule 42(1)(a) and (b), as the order was granted contrary to procedural requirements and contained ambiguities. The court rejected the respondent's request to rescind only ambiguous portions, finding that partial rescission would alter the substance and meaning of the original order…
