Mr D Ward
Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMr D Ward's claims of unfair dismissal and unlawful deduction from wages were presented outside the three-month period running from the effective date of termination. The tribunal was not satisfied that it was not reasonably practicable for either claim to have been presented in time, so it held that it had no jurisdiction and dismissed both claims.
The respondent's contract counterclaim was dismissed by consent. No monetary award was made.

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.
