time limits for presenting submissions
Mon 17-Aug-09 12:22 PM |
We are all familiar with the various time limits that bear on apellants but are there any that bear on the Sec of State. My cl. asked for an appeal against an overpayment decison in the spring of 2008 and,according to Debt Management, the decision was reconsidered but not changed in August 2008 (doesn't look like the Cl. was notified either).Since then we have heard nothing, there has been no submission issued to any party and it seems likely that the Trib service don't know about it.
Are there any time limits for them to provide a submission and if they don't defend their decsion within a certain time can we ask a a Tribunal find in favour of the appellant by default? I've trawled through the appeals regs but all I can find is rules for the appellant.
Thanks
