Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe judgment records a preliminary decision about time limits rather than the merits of the unfair dismissal complaint. Tribunal Judge Overton decided that the Employment Tribunal had jurisdiction to hear Miss Legister's unfair dismissal claim.
The reason given was that it was not reasonably practicable for the claimant to present her ET1 claim form within the time limit, and that she presented the claim within a reasonable further period. No remedy or substantive liability finding is recorded in this judgment.

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.
