Cummings v Compass Group UK and Ireland Ltd (T/A Scholarest): EAT 11 Apr 2007

EAT Practice and Procedure – Striking-out/dismissal
The Appellant applied to the Employment Tribunal with an equal pay claim. Her solicitor misspelled her name on the ET1. The Employment Tribunal struck out the claim, refusing leave to amend on the ground that rule 1(4)(a) had not been complied with in that the name on the ET1 was fictitious. Remitted to the Employment Tribunal to consider whether there were grounds on which it would not be just and equitable to allow the amendment or whether the amendment should be allowed.
