Charles v Tesco Stores Ltd: EAT 19 Jan 2012

EAT RACE DISCRIMINATION – Continuing act
PRACTICE AND PROCEDURE – Preliminary issues
A self-represented party complained that an Employment Judge had not addressed his claim that within 3 months prior to his lodging proceedings he had agreed compensation (or had an offer of compensation) which was revoked/withdrawn/broken by the employer, and that this was an act of discrimination against him. The EJ should thus not have ruled his earlier complaints out of time, since this was the last in a series of linked events.
Since none of the hearing had (it appeared) concerned the allegation that the Respondent had welched on or had withdrawn an agreement, the EJ was held entitled to hold as she did.
