  I said probable because the usual process is to remain on ESA until a Tribunal has decided. Impossible to be 100% sure. He might for some reason not taken that step. It would be improbable not to have taken the Tribunal appeal stage. Still remains the fact that there is absolutely no evidence provided that the two things are linked.
