Case Summary

The claimant sought reconsideration of a judgment dismissing complaints of detriment on grounds of protected disclosure, pregnancy discrimination, and victimisation. The original judgment dismissed these claims on time limit grounds. The reconsideration application was refused as having no reasonable prospects of success.

Why this outcome?

Out of time

The tribunal dismissed the original claims for protected disclosure detriment, pregnancy discrimination, and victimisation on grounds that they were brought outside the applicable time limit and it was reasonably practicable to bring them within time, or alternatively it was not just and equitable to extend time.

Key Issues

  • Time limit for protected disclosure detriment claims
  • Reasonably practicable to bring claims within time
  • Just and equitable extension of time for pregnancy discrimination
  • Just and equitable extension of time for victimisation
  • Relevance of undisclosed disciplinary outcome letter dated 17 September 2025

Within these reasons, references to the “Judgment” are to the Reserved Judgment sent to the parties on 17 December 2025, unless I say otherwise. 3. The claimant made her application for reconsideration on 18 December 2025. I apologise for the length of time that it has taken for the parties to receive a decision on the application. Unfortunately, the application was not passed to me to deal with until 26 March 2026. I can see from the application that the claimant had also copied the Tribunal into an email that she sent to the respondent on 8 November 2025, and that she sent an email to the Tribunal on 18 November 2025 (copied to the respondent) “to provide an update in relation to my case”. The November 2025 emails did not say that they were making an application, and they were not passed to me at that time. 4. The key passage of the claimant’s application for reconsideration is as follows: “The Tribunal’s judgment proceeds on the basis that the last relevant act for limitatio
