Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMr A Hubbard brought an unfair dismissal claim against Aberystwyth University. Employment Judge R L Brace recorded that no ET3 response form had been presented by the respondent and that there was sufficient material before the tribunal to make a proper determination.
The tribunal upheld the unfair dismissal claim. The judgment was expressly limited to liability only, so no remedy was decided at this stage.
The order stated that the matter would proceed to a remedy hearing before an Employment Judge sitting alone, with a three-hour time estimate. The judgment was made under Rule 21 of the Employment Tribunal Rules of Procedure 2013.
