EAT JURISDICTIONAL POINTS
Claim in time and effective date of termination
Extension of time: reasonably practicable
Appeal against the decision of an Employment Judge that (a) it was not reasonably practicable for the Appellant to bring her claim for unfair dismissal within the 3 month time limit where (i) she had no knowledge of the time limit and (ii) had taken informal advice from a solicitor who she had not retained to act for her; (b) it was perverse on the facts for the Employment Judge to conclude that a further delay of 2.5 months was reasonable.
