Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal considered the claimant's unlawful deduction from wages claim and held that it had been presented outside the time limits in section 23(2) Employment Rights Act 1996. It found that it was reasonably practicable for the claim to have been presented within the ordinary time limit.
The tribunal also found that, even if a later period were available, the claim was not brought within such further period as it considered reasonable. On that basis, the tribunal held that it did not have jurisdiction to consider the claim and dismissed it.

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.
