Mr Ali brought an employment claim against SMSG Service Limited (changed to Real Guard). The respondent did not attend the preliminary hearing held remotely by CVP. The claimant appeared in person.
Decision
The tribunal found that the claim was not presented within the applicable time limit and that it was reasonably practicable for the claimant to have done so. Accordingly, the claim was dismissed.
Practical note
Claims must be presented within statutory time limits, and where it was reasonably practicable to do so, tribunals have no jurisdiction to hear out-of-time claims.
