REASONS FOR JUDGMENT OF THE COURT
(Delivered from the Bench at Vancouver, British Columbia on April 1, 2004)
SEXTON J.A.
[1] We are unable to conclude that the decision of the Umpire was palpably wrong in the result. He concluded, as apparently did the minority of the Board of Referees, that Mr. Leung had every reason to expect that his employment with Integrated Cable Systems Inc. would continue and therefore had just cause for leaving the employment with Shanghai Chinese Bistro.
[2] The application will be dismissed.
