   ...prepare a challenge to the Authority’s determination or, alternatively, that he instructed his solicitor to file a challenge within time. There is no suggestion that either Mr Young or his solicitor was unaware of, or mistaken about, the 28 day appeal period.

Commonsense dictates that in such circumstances it may generally be expected...
