South Lanarkshire Council v Russell & Ors UKEATS/0067/09/BI
Appeal against an order requiring the respondent employer to provide additional information in respect of an equal pay claim. The order was held to be incompetent because, despite the hearing taking place before a full Tribunal, the Employment Judge made the order alone, contrary to rule 18(2). In the alternative, if the Employment Judge wanted to make a standalone order under rule 10, the lay members should not have heard the argument. Appeal allowed and case remitted to the Tribunal.

The Manchester College v Cocliff UKEAT/0035/10/CEA
Appeal against decision by the Employment Tribunal that the claimant, who had a fixed term contract, had been treated less favourably than a comparable permanent worker. The EAT found that the Tribunal had erred by failing properly to consider the reason for less favourable treatment: they erred in deciding that, because the less favourable terms had not been justified, the reason for such terms was that the claimant was a fixed-term worker.

Cancer Research UK v Harding UKEAT/0485/09/DA
Appeal against the Tribunal's finding that the claimant was unfairly dismissed. The EAT allowed the appeal on the bases that the ET had not given adequate reasons for its decision and had erred in law in holding that the burden of proof rested on the employer to show reasonable grounds for its belief in the Claimant’s misconduct based on a reasonable investigation.
