  • A Discussion off the record at Disciplinary

    During my hearing the chair wanted speak off the record to which I agreed and told the minute taker to close the note book, he then asked me what my intention was relating to a previous verbal discussion I had with him on procedures for me follow, on a claim of harassment against a line manager who in turn happened to be the investigatory officer and the chap who also suspended me . this discussion had taken place weeks prior to the disciplinary hearing . He kept asking me if I was pursueing or dropping it , I said yes although I was caught off guard that I would drop it on the hope it would look favourable on his final decision which it didn't. He then said ok that's that out the road and continued the hearing , can I use this as part of my appeal even though it was off the record.

    Thanks

      It is equivalent to a "without prejudice" discussion in litigation which you would not be allowed to refer to.

      However, the rules of court do not apply to your appeal hearing, I would chuck it in if I were you - particularly as it suggests that the chair did not make his decision solely on the basis of the evidence that was before him relating to the particular matter they sacked you over.

      Good luck
