Francois v Castle Rock Properties Ltd (T/S Electric Ballroom): EAT 5 Apr 2011

EAT PRACTICE AND PROCEDURE – Costs
UNFAIR DISMISSAL – Compensation
1. Compensation. It is argued, in reliance on Melia v Magna Kansei Ltd [2006] ICR 410, that the Employment Tribunal should have made an allowance for delay in payment of loss of earnings. This was, however, not argued below and no evidential foundation was laid for the making of such an award. This ground of appeal was dismissed.
2. Costs. The Tribunal awarded costs in the sum of andpound;250 against the successful Claimant by reason of the conduct of her representative. There was no sufficient basis for the award in the reasons given by the Tribunal. The award is set aside.
