[1]The claimant did not attend the hearing on 12 March 2018.[2]The claimant has failed to provide a satisfactory explanation for her non-attendance.[3]The only explanation for the absence is that it was “due to family death”.[4]The claimant has failed to: 4.1. identify the member of the family; 4.2. provide the date, and documentary evidence, of the death; 4.3. explain why the claimant did not apply for a postponement of the hearing or notify the tribunal of the reason for her non-attendance prior to the hearing.[5]I cannot find that the interests of justice require such a reconsideration. Case No: 2420553/17 2[6]There must be finality in litigation.
