Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claimant brought a complaint of unfair dismissal against Manchester University NHS Foundation Trust. The Tribunal considered whether the complaint had been presented within the statutory time limit.
The Tribunal found that the complaint was presented outside the time limit contained in Section 111(2)(a) Employment Rights Act 1996. It also found that it was reasonably practicable for the claimant to present the complaint within that time limit. On that basis, the Tribunal concluded that it did not have jurisdiction to consider the complaint.

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.
