Key legal question
Whether the appellate court's assessment of handwritten time sheets and witness evidence was arbitrary.
Extracted holding
No. The Federal Court held that rejecting the evidentiary value of handwritten time sheets and declining further evidence was within free assessment and not manifestly untenable.
Extracted reasoning
Handwritten entries are less reliable than clock-stamp records, especially if not shown to have reached the supervisor. The appellant's argument targeted admissibility rather than probative value, and the court could disregard testimony lacking relevance to additional overtime beyond what was already undisputed.
