Summary:

Commission's decision dated 01-02-96 but claimant's appeal filed only 7 months later. Claimant invoked his difficulty with the English language for not appealing earlier. Request to extend the delay of appeal denied both by BOR and Umpire. The FCA held that the facts on file were reasonable to have the BOR and the Umpire infer that the claimant had a good command of the English language. Claimant's application for judicial review dismissed.
