Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningSarah Mills brought a claim of unfair dismissal against Northumberland County Council. The Tribunal found that the claim was not presented within the time limit prescribed by section 111(2) of the Employment Rights Act 1996.
The Tribunal held that it therefore had no jurisdiction to consider the unfair dismissal claim and dismissed it. No monetary remedy was recorded. Reasons were given orally at the hearing; the written judgment does not set out further findings or reasoning.

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.
