Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe hearing took place at Cambridge on 10 November 2021 before Employment Judge Tynan, with the claimant appearing in person and the respondent represented by Mr T Pacey, Counsel. The written judgment records that the claimant’s claims for a redundancy payment and for unlawful deductions from wages were dismissed under Rule 52 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013 because they had been withdrawn by the claimant.
On the unfair dismissal claim, the tribunal addressed limitation only. It found that it was not reasonably practicable for the claimant to present the claim within the primary time limit in section 111(2)(a) of the Employment Rights Act 1996, which it identified as 7 February 2021, and that the claim presented on 19 February 2021 was within such further period as the tribunal considered reasonable. The judgment does not record any merits decision on the unfair dismissal claim or any monetary award.
The reasons were given orally at the hearing, and the written record states that written reasons would not be provided unless requested in time.

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.
