Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

The Tribunal held that both the unlawful deduction from wages claim and the unfair dismissal claim were presented outside the statutory time limits in sections 23(2) and 111(2) of the Employment Rights Act 1996. It found that it was reasonably practicable for both claims to have been presented within the relevant time limits.

On that basis, the Tribunal held that it had no jurisdiction to hear any of the Claimant's claims. Both claims were dismissed. The decision was given orally at the hearing, and the written record states that no written reasons would be provided unless requested in accordance with the note at the end of the judgment.

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.
