Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt a preliminary hearing on 16 July 2021 before Regional Employment Judge Taylor, the tribunal considered Mr J Clarkson's claim against Park Communications Limited. The respondent was represented by counsel and the claimant appeared in person.
The tribunal held that the claim was presented outside the statutory time limit for claims under section 111 of the Employment Rights Act 1996. It further found that it was reasonably practicable for the claim to have been presented in time. On that basis, the claim was dismissed.

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.
