Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMrs J Bailey brought a claim of constructive unfair dismissal against Beckfoot Trust. The case was heard by Employment Judge Eeley sitting alone on 17 August 2020.
The tribunal held that the claim had been presented outside the prescribed time limit in section 111 of the Employment Rights Act 1996. It considered whether to exercise discretion to extend time but found that the test in section 111(2)(b) was not met.
On that basis, the tribunal dismissed the claim for lack of jurisdiction. No remedy was awarded and no substantive findings on the merits of the dismissal claim were made.

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.
