Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt a public preliminary hearing in Leeds on 14 March 2022, Employment Judge Lancaster considered Miss T Amber's complaints against West Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service under section 47B of the Employment Rights Act 1996. The tribunal struck out the complaints after finding that there was no reasonable prospect of the claimant successfully arguing that her claim had been presented in time.
The judgment records that the tribunal was not satisfied there was any reasonable prospect of showing that it was not reasonably practicable for the complaints to have been presented within three months of the material date, which was 9 February 2021 at the latest. It also rejected any argument that the claim presented on 22 September 2021 had been brought within a reasonable time thereafter.

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.
