THE INDUSTRIAL TRIBUNALS
CASE REF: 1310/14
CLAIMANT: Jack Kosut
RESPONDENT: Tesco Stores Ltd
DECISION ON A PRE-HEARING REVIEW
The decision of the tribunal is set out at Paragraph 1. below.
Constitution of Tribunal:
Employment Judge (sitting alone): Employment Judge D Buchanan
Appearances:
The claimant appeared in person (giving evidence through an interpreter).
The respondent company was represented by Mr C Hamill, Barrister-at-Law, instructed by Jones Cassidy Brett, Solicitors.
1(i) The claimant’s claims of unfair dismissal and race discrimination are dismissed.
(ii) Both claims are out of time. This is accepted by the claimant.
On the basis of the claimant’s own evidence, it is not appropriate, in respect of either claim, to extend the time for bringing these complaints, and I therefore decline to exercise my discretion to do so.
(iii) Reasons were given at the hearing.
