1. This is an appeal against the whole arbitral award handed down by Arbitrator, Ms B. Garudzo on the 21st of March 2024 dismissing Appellant’s entire claim. The Appellant raised five grounds of appeal couched as follows:
1.1 “Arbitrator erred in her findings that there was no evidence of the claim of tender commission fees although she acknowledged that unwritten contra is valid and binding. This finding is a misdirection of facts which amounts to a misdirection in law More
There has been an inordinate delay in the hand down of this judgement. This was partly due to the voluminous record of proceedings and the number of issues that needed resolution. I extend my sincere apologies to the litigants notwithstanding. More
The appellant was employed by respondent as a Lecturer at Belvedere Technical Teachers’ College. Following allegations that appellant conducted income generating projects using respondent’s resources but failed to account for the money he received, he was charged on five (5) counts. Three of the charges related to the income generating projects, the fourth charge was for using an unofficial receipt book to receipt the money he received and the fifth charge was for receiving the said money when it was not in line with his duties as a lecturer. He was found liable and dismissed. More
The appellant was employed as an accountant by the respondent’s engineering division.
He was arraigned before a disciplinary committee for acts of misconduct. He was found guilty of unsatisfactory work performance. He was dismissed.
This appeal is against the decision to find him guilty and to dismiss him. But in heads of argument filed in appellant’s behalf, the issue of conviction is not argued it may be that the appellant had decided to abandon it and merely base his appeal on challenging the penalty imposed. More
