EAT PRACTICE AND PROCEDURE
Amendment
Parties
The Employment Judge granted to a group of 103 Claimants permission to amend the claims and join the TUPE transferee where the TUPE transferor had been the Respondent. The application was made after the expiry of a relevant time limit – namely the time limit on making a claim post TUPE transfer for pre transfer arrears of equal pay as per Sodexo Limited v Gutridge [2009] ICR 1486. The Employment Judge applied the principles in Selkent Bus Co v Moore [1996] ICR 836.
Held: the Employment Judge was correct to apply Selkent principles, and she did not make any error of law in the way she applied them. Appeal dismissed.
