Case Summary
The claimant brought multiple claims against HMRC which were all dismissed as being out of time. The tribunal found that it was not just and equitable to extend the time limits in the majority of cases, and that some claims also amounted to an abuse of process under the principle in Henderson v Henderson.
Why this outcome?
Out of timeThe tribunal dismissed the claims because they were filed outside the applicable time limits. For most claims, the tribunal found it was either not reasonably practicable to extend the time limit or not just and equitable to do so. Additionally, some claims under Case 2 had no reasonable prospects of success, and certain claims in Case 3 amounted to an abuse of process under the Henderson v Henderson principle.
