Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal struck out the claimant's unfair dismissal complaint under rule 37. It had written to Miss A Latif on 12 August 2019 giving her an opportunity to make representations, or request a hearing, on why that part of the claim should not be struck out on the basis that it had no reasonable prospects of success. The claimant did not make written representations, or did not make sufficient representations, and did not request a hearing, so the unfair dismissal complaint was struck out.
The tribunal recorded that the section 111A Employment Rights Act 1996 point raised by the respondent only applies to complaints of unfair dismissal, and that it no longer applied in the present case after the strike-out. The order stated that the strike-out did not affect the rest of the claim, which remained live for notice pay and 3 days' pay, and the case was still listed for final hearing on 11 October 2019 in Leicester.

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.
