Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal recorded that the claim was submitted on 22 February 2024 and involved a single claim of unfair dismissal. It found that the dismissal took place on 13 April 2018, well outside the normal 3 month time limit.
The tribunal wrote to the claimant on 5 March 2024 raising the time limit issue and gave him until 26 March 2024 to provide reasons why the claim should not be struck out. No response was received. The claim was struck out because it had no reasonable prospects of success.

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.
