My previous employer filed in the small claims court. We had a court date for next week but he never presented his paper work or paid his fees. Once he had my bundle of documents he wrote to the court yesterday stating he had urgent work out of the country and asking for the hearing to be postponed. The court have dismissed the case today but can he refile now he has had access to my evidence I feel this would be unfair.
