Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt a preliminary hearing on 24 July 2023, Employment Judge Wright sitting alone considered the Claimant's complaint for unpaid travel expenses relating to the summer of 2020. The Tribunal found that the complaint was brought out of time.
Because the claim was out of time, the Tribunal held that it did not have jurisdiction to hear the complaint and dismissed it. The record states that this dismissal did not affect the Claimant's discrimination or unfair dismissal claims, which were not determined by this hearing.

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.
