Labour Court dismisses Valerijus Zubrickas’s appeal after non-attendance

The Labour Court dismissed Valerijus Zubrickas’s appeal for lack of prosecution after he did not attend to pursue it. The determination was signed on 27 March 2014; the merits were not decided on appeal, and the Equality Officer’s decision stood. The Equality Officer had dismissed Zubrickas’s claims of race discrimination in conditions of employment and equal remuneration. Zubrickas’s solicitor attended the hearing, and McSweeney Building & Civil Engineering Ltd. was present.
