Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt a preliminary hearing on 22 April 2021 before Employment Judge Camp, the tribunal considered Mr C Woodall's unfair dismissal claim against Trailer Engineering Limited. The tribunal found that the claim had been presented outside the primary time limit in section 111(2)(a) of the Employment Rights Act 1996, including any early conciliation extension.
The tribunal was not satisfied that it had not been reasonably practicable for the claim to be presented within the time limit. On that basis, the claim failed and was dismissed. No remedy was awarded.

How we got this data
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.
