Holding

The petitioners' application is dismissed as it would amount to sitting on a decision for a Court of concurrent jurisdiction. The only option for the petitioners is to lodge an appeal against the impugned judgment.

Facts

The petitioners moved the court seeking to review and vacate a previous judgment dated 2/5/2023, claiming the court erred in jurisdiction and in the application of the law.

Issues

  1. Jurisdiction of the Employment and Labour Relations Court
  2. Review of the previous judgment

Reasoning

The court found that the petitioners' claim of error in jurisdiction was unfounded and that misconstruing a statute or reaching an erroneous conclusion of law cannot be grounds for review.

Outcome

Application dismissed

Orders

  • Application for review of the judgment dismissed
  • Petitioners are directed to lodge an appeal against the impugned judgment
