Case Summary

The claimant brought claims for unfair dismissal and discrimination because of religion against Krinkles UK Ltd. The tribunal found that the claimant did not present his claims within the relevant statutory time limits and that it was reasonably practicable for him to have done so for the unfair dismissal claim. The tribunal determined it would not be just and equitable to extend the time limit for the discrimination claim, and therefore dismissed both claims for lack of jurisdiction.

Why this outcome?

Out of time

The claimant did not present his claims within the relevant statutory time limits. It was reasonably practicable for him to have presented the unfair dismissal claim within the time limit, and it would not be just and equitable to extend the time limit for the discrimination claim.
