Mod Edit. : I've merged your two threads D to avoid confusion.

Hi DC,

Is this appeal for Employment and Support Allowance,ESA as I note that you say IB in your post?

sorry it is a medical for incapacity benefit that i failed and have a tribunal hearing next month

My reply appears to have disappeared during the thread merge so I repeat it below.

At any tribunal hearing, the appellant must have all the same case bundle as the tribunal panel, if not that amounts to a ' breach of natural justice', which in layman's terms means 'fair play at work'.

That is why the Tribunal Judge had no option but to adjourn your appeal.

You will be provided with a copy of the IB50, and the Tribunals Service will send you a new date ASAP.

what do you mean hun plz?

i also need to know can the chair look over the mental side too even if i have no gp letter as i have been told im mildly depressed but because i have no supporting evidence from the time of the medical that they wont take it into account

In that case DC, have a look at the IB appeals guide accessible from this link. :

www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/help-for-claim...incapacity#ibappeals

With regards to the documents that you should have had at the Tribunal Hearing, you should have been sent a "bundle" of documents by the DWP decision maker, when your appeal was sent forward to the Appeals Tribunal Service.

If after reading the IB guides you have any further questions please come back to the forum.
