EAT JURISDICTIONAL POINTS – Extension of time: reasonably practicable
Judge held that it was not reasonably practicable for Claimant to present unfair dismissal claim because he was awaiting the outcome of an internal appeal – Decision upheld – Bodha v Hampshire AHA and Palmer v Southend-on-Sea Borough Council distinguished on the basis that those were cases when the applicant was, or should have been, aware of the limits and delayed claiming nevertheless, whereas in this case he was (reasonably) ignorant of them
