Outcome
Individual claims
The claimant applied for interim relief following dismissal. The tribunal refused the application, meaning it was not satisfied that the claimant's claim of automatic unfair dismissal was likely to succeed at a full hearing.
Facts
Mr Scherdel brought a claim for interim relief following dismissal by Amplius. The matter was heard remotely by CVP before Employment Judge Maidment. The claimant represented himself while the respondent was represented by counsel, Mr R Powell. Written reasons were not provided at the hearing but could be requested within 14 days.
Decision
The tribunal refused the claimant's application for interim relief. This means the tribunal was not satisfied that the claimant's underlying claim of automatic unfair dismissal had a pretty good chance of succeeding at a full merits hearing.
Practical note
Interim relief applications require a high threshold of likelihood of success and are frequently refused even where a full claim may proceed.
