Suddhoo v Woolworths Ltd (No.3)

In *Suddhoo v Woolworths Ltd (No.3)*, the applicant, Mr. Suddhoo, brought proceedings against the respondent, Woolworths Ltd, alleging breaches of contract and statutory obligations. The matter came before Judge Street in the Industrial Relations Commission of New South Wales.

The primary legal issue before the court was whether the applicant had adduced sufficient evidence to support the causes of action he advanced against Woolworths Ltd. Specifically, the court was required to determine the admissibility and weight of the affidavit evidence tendered by the applicant in support of his claims.

Judge Street found that the affidavit evidence presented by Mr. Suddhoo was inadmissible and therefore insufficient to establish the necessary factual basis for his claims. Consequently, the court concluded that there was no evidence upon which to proceed with the alleged causes of action. The application was accordingly dismissed.
