Claimant v Barclays Bank UK PLC

Outcome

Claimant fails

Facts

Ms Muka brought a claim against Barclays Bank UK plc which was determined by the tribunal on 21 January 2025. The claimant applied for reconsideration of that judgment on 30 January 2025. The underlying merits hearing had resulted in a decision unfavourable to the claimant.

Decision

Employment Judge Gumbiti-Zimuto refused the claimant's application for reconsideration on the grounds that there was no reasonable prospect of the original decision being varied or revoked. The judge found that the claimant had expressed disagreement with the tribunal's conclusions but had not provided any basis to conclude the decision was or might have been wrong.

Practical note

A reconsideration application requires more than mere disagreement with the tribunal's conclusions; the applicant must identify specific grounds showing the decision was or may have been wrong.
