Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMrs Kirsty Carter's case against Beaverbrooks The Jewellers Limited was heard at Birmingham via CVP on 1 August 2022 before Employment Judge Wedderspoon. The judgment records a claim for a redundancy payment and claims for unfair dismissal, holiday pay, arrears of pay including a bonus, and wrongful dismissal.
The redundancy payment claim was dismissed upon withdrawal. The tribunal then held that the unfair dismissal, holiday pay, arrears of pay and wrongful dismissal claims had been brought outside the statutory time limit. On that basis, it said it had no jurisdiction to hear those claims and struck them out.
No monetary award is recorded in the judgment. The written record also notes that reasons were given orally at the hearing and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested within 14 days.

Case essentials (reference, date, judge, venue, country, claim categories) are extracted from the structured metadata gov.uk publishes alongside each decision. Parties and monetary figures are extracted from the judgment PDF text. Key findings and per-claim outcomes require a second extraction pass that is not yet complete for this case — until then, the primary source linked above is the authoritative record.
