Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claimant, Miss A Chidlow, brought an unfair dismissal claim against Apple Retail UK Limited. Employment Judge K J Palmer sat alone at Bury St Edmunds on 28 November 2024, with the claimant in person and Ms C Davies appearing for the respondent.
The tribunal held that the unfair dismissal claim had been presented out of time. It found that it was reasonably practicable for the claimant to have presented the claim in time, so the tribunal had no jurisdiction to hear it. The claim was therefore dismissed.
The judgment records no compensation or other monetary award, and no separate remedy was determined because the claim failed on limitation/jurisdiction grounds.

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.
