JUDGMENT
PRELIMINARY HEARING
For the Appellant | NO APPEARANCE OR REPRESENTATION BY OR ON BEHALF OF THE APPELLANT |
MS RECORDER COX QC
"Mr Kotecha was left out of the dinner invitation at the instigation of the Second Respondent. No evidence was presented to the Tribunal that Mr Kotecha was ever invited to the dinner (see paragraph 5.12 of the decision)."
"Question: June 1998. Portugal Sales Convention. He says he was not invited?
Answer: Verbal invitation by me.
I recollect A (the applicant) said he had a prior arrangement.
It was a dinner for all the people who worked in the Region be invited to dinner.
There is no question of him being excluded from that invitation.
(Chairman: Where is this alleged in A (the applicant's) witness statement?
Applicant's rep: Paragraph 42)
"Both myself and Clive ensured every single person got a letter saying "good news, we've arranged a dinner" – because there are nights on the convention when you have a night to do your own thing.
As well as the letter I know for a fact Simon Chalmers as a District Manager invited A (the applicant)."
