Case Summary

The claim of unfair dismissal was dismissed as it was submitted out of time. Costs were awarded to the respondent in the sum of £350.

Why this outcome?

Out of time

The claim was submitted outside the three-month time limit for bringing an unfair dismissal claim, and the tribunal therefore lacked jurisdiction to hear it.
