From the tribunal's reasons on the amount
deliberate attempt to mislead the tribunal. The tribunal’s decision. The tribunal carefully considered the application to adduce further evidence and/or an adjournment. In doing so the tribunal considered the overriding objective and the issues raised by admissions made by the applicants and the application to rely on further fundamental evidence that went to the substance of the application. Although the tribunal frequently exercises a degree of leniency to parties in respect of their compliance with directions, particularly where a party appears unrepresented, the tribunal determined that in this application, these matters should and could have been addressed at a much earlier stage by the applicants as they went to the substance of their application. The tribunal determined in the absence of any, or any compelling reason as to why this evidence could not have been provided earlier, that prejudice was caused to the respondent and to the tribunal’s proper management of its resources. Therefore, the application to adduce further evidence and/or to adjourn was refused. The applicants’ case. The applicants sought to rely on the documents provided in their hearing bundles. … None of the applicants had complied with the tribunal’s direction by making any witness statement on which they could rely as their evidence-in-chief. …
