Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt this preliminary hearing before Employment Judge Tom Ryan, the tribunal struck out the claimant’s unfair dismissal complaint insofar as it was pleaded on the basis that he had been dismissed on 6 September 2018. The tribunal held that that version of the complaint had no reasonable prospect of success.
The tribunal also permitted the claim to be amended so that the claimant could allege that he was unfairly dismissed on 15 November 2018. That was an amendment decision only; the amended unfair dismissal allegation was not finally determined in the judgment.
The respondent’s application for a deposit order in relation to the continuing unfair dismissal complaint was granted, and the deposit order was to be issued separately. No substantive remedy was assessed in this judgment.

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.
