Court of Appeal upholds the High Court's dismissal of two appeals concerning allegations of discrimination and victimisation related to the appellant's pension and employment termination. The appellant, a former teacher, had claimed post-employment discrimination and "green victimisation" following her removal from office by the Minister and subsequent pension issues. The Labour Court had determined that the appellant's claims under statute were not substantiated within the cognisable period and were misconceived. The High Court found no error of law in the Labour Court's decisions, and the appellant's subsequent appeals to the Court of Appeal were dismissed, affirming that the Labour Court's findings were unimpeachable and the appellant had been given a fair hearing.
