Legal Question in Employment Law in Minnesota
I am trying to file a court appeal in an unemployment case, in minnesota, after
reconsireration was denied.
My unemployment hearing had been rescheduled, because the other side had named 2 ("main")
witnesses, who appeared to be sick, as they had just found out that day.
I assume, that the manager, who fired me, could not be present.
An employee told the judge, he would forward the decision about rescheduling
to the three ( ! ) other parties.
I guess, as I was the appealing party, not them, they do not have to prove, that
they were sick, right?
Also, I was not notified, that there would be witnesses.
Is this OK according to the rules?
Also, could I argue, that I was deprived of the possibility to question them, ( in
the rescheduled- hearing) ?

Ever hearing for reconsideration can have witnesses testifying. Advance notice is not required. Courts willoften reschedule hearings to meet with witness availability. However, it will reschedule, in most cases, only one time.
