Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal held that it had jurisdiction because it was not reasonably practicable for the claim to have been presented within time and it was presented within a further reasonable period under section 111 Employment Rights Act 1996.
The complaint of unfair dismissal was dismissed. The Tribunal found that the claimant's resignation on 5 December 2023 was not a dismissal under section 95(1)(c) Employment Rights Act 1996. The written judgment states that reasons were given orally at the hearing and no written reasons are included.

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.
