Seems Jetstar and a former employee who gave evidence before the Senate hearing are heading for a hearing in Fair Work Australia following his dismissal.

Don't know the details, don't know the facts but I hope someone is watching to make sure all is ok.

I am a little confused at to what the issue is being argued in this brief. At first I thought it was something to do with unfair dismissal, however after reading through it's more about which day he is terminated on. Am I missing something here, or do we really clog up our courts with this type of thing?

The way I read it he was terminated and appealed but did so outside of the time prescribed by J* due to them saying he was sacked on 16 Mar. J* argue they don't have to consider his appeal so the employee took J* to FWA to say that he did appeal within the time frame.

So now they're back to the next stage of considering his appeal I guess.
