Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMiss G Nightingale brought a complaint of unfair dismissal against Meadows Care Ltd. The tribunal held that the complaint had been presented outside the time limit in section 111(2)(a) Employment Rights Act 1996.
The tribunal found that it was reasonably practicable for the Claimant to present the complaint within the statutory time limit. On that basis, the tribunal held that it did not have jurisdiction to consider the unfair dismissal complaint.
No merits findings or monetary award were recorded, and the judgment records only the jurisdictional dismissal of the claim.

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.
