Claimant v The Dental Imaging Company

Outcome

Facts

This is a reconsideration application relating to a previous judgment sent to parties on 5 June 2025. The original claim was brought over two years out of time. The claimant argued for an extension based on arriving in the UK during Covid time and having brought proceedings against a subsequent employer which resolved before initiating this claim. At a preliminary hearing, the claimant provided witness statement and oral evidence on extension of time.

Decision

The tribunal refused the reconsideration application under rule 70(2) of the Employment Tribunal Procedure Rules 2024, finding no reasonable prospect of the judgment being varied or revoked because the claimant advanced substantially the same reasons for extension of time that had previously been argued and rejected at the preliminary hearing.
