Case Summary
Preliminary hearing judgment in an unfair dismissal claim. The tribunal granted the respondent an extension of time to present its Response and ordered it to pay the claimant £440 preparation time. The claimant was ordered to prepare a verbatim transcript of the dismissal conversation recording.
Why this outcome?
This is a preliminary case management hearing. The tribunal extended the respondent's time to file its Response and awarded the claimant preparation time costs of £440, likely due to the respondent's late or non-compliant submission. The claimant was required to provide a full transcript of the dismissal conversation to assist with case management.
