Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a record of a preliminary hearing on limitation and response time, heard by Employment Judge Self on 1 March 2022. The Tribunal noted that all claims had been lodged outside the statutory time limits and first addressed whether they could nevertheless proceed.
For the wrongful dismissal, holiday pay and unlawful deduction of wages claims, the Tribunal found that it was not reasonably practicable for those claims to be lodged within the statutory time limit and that they had been lodged within a reasonable time thereafter. On that basis, the Tribunal held that it had jurisdiction to consider those claims.
For the disability discrimination claims, the Tribunal decided that it would be just and equitable to extend time, so those claims could also proceed. The Respondent's application for an extension of time to lodge its Response was granted.
The Tribunal also recorded that the unfair dismissal claim was dismissed upon withdrawal. The judgment does not contain any merits findings or any monetary award.

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.
