Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt a preliminary hearing on 22 July 2026, Employment Judge A Jones held that the tribunal lacked jurisdiction to determine Mr M Munro’s unfair dismissal claim against Stonegate Pub Company Ltd. The claim was lodged outside the statutory period, and the tribunal found that it was reasonably practicable for it to have been lodged in time.
The claim therefore failed on jurisdictional grounds without a determination of its merits. Oral reasons were given, and the judgment was sent to the parties on 24 July 2026. No monetary remedy was recorded.

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.
