Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
board of referees  errors in law  misinterpretation of facts 

Summary:

As per the FC, the Board erred in law in stating that the tentative agreement brought to an end the labour dispute. Such agreement, by definition, has no effect until it is made definitive. It was never ratified and never took effect. Leave to appeal to SC dismissed.


Issue: Sub-Issue 1: Sub-Issue 2: Sub-Issue 3:
umpires  grounds of appeal  capricious finding  meaning 

Summary:

The tentative agreement was never ratified; it was followed by a lockout until a new agreement with different terms was ratified. It is patently absurd to say, as the Board did, that the tentative agreement brought to an end the labour dispute. Leave to appeal dismissed by SC.
