Merit Appeals Board <br />May 24, 2024 <br />CHR. CABANAS: Well, up to a certain point. I mean, as the Appellant, you can bring an <br />attorney, you can bring a personal representative —it can be anybody. You can bring a union <br />agent, if you wish, to help you in your appeal. You don't have to come by yourself. <br />But, again, the fact sheet that we will finalize today, will the intent from the Board was to make <br />it clear for everybody as to what's involved. <br />FEMALE SPKR.: Okay. <br />CHR. CABANAS: Yeah. So that no one comes lost in a hearing. It is a hearing. So, the fact <br />sheet will explain it. It's an informational sheet, basically, what it is. It will help you —it will <br />help you. We want it to be a fair process for everyone —where concerns are aired during the <br />hearing itself. <br />MS. TAVARES: Thank you. <br />CHR. CABANAS: Appellant, you have any questions? <br />APPELLANT: No questions. <br />CHR. CABANAS: Okay. And any further questions? <br />MS. TAVARES: No. Thank you for answering the clarification. I appreciate it. <br />CHR. CABANAS: The informational sheet will help both of you. <br />MS. TAVARES: Okay. <br />MS. MATHEWS: Madam Chair, can I have a clarification on whether it's really okay for Corp. <br />Counsel to talk to the Appellant? <br />CHR. CABANAS: Noit'sI said "no." <br />MS. MATHEWS: Okay. I just wanted to make sure that was very clear. Okay. <br />CHR. CABANAS: Yeah. The Appellant has its case, you have your case. <br />MS. TAVARES: I understand. <br />CHR. CABANAS: Both cases the part of the exchange of information is the submittal of those <br />documents. The July 8 h is when you can submit documents, your exhibits, your witness list, <br />motions, memorandums. You do the same thing. <br />Page 15 <br />
