Gisda Cyf v Barratt [2010] UKSC 41
Appeal against ruling that unfair dismissal and sex discrimination claims were in time, in circumstances where the claimant had not read the letter of dismissal until four days after it had been received at her home. Appeal dismissed, largely on the grounds that, in such circumstances, s97 of the ERA 1996 should not be interpreted under established laws of contract but through the statutory intent of Parliament.

Dixon v Viollet & Anor UKEAT/0342/10/RN
Appeal against an order made against the respondent in respect of unpaid wages. The claimant thought she was employed by T.HQ, of which the respondent was a director. Her claim for unpaid wages succeeded and the order was made against T.HQ and the respondent. However, T.HQ was actually owned by another company which was now in liquidation, so the correct respondent in the original claim should have been that company. The appeal succeeded and the order was amended so that it was enforcable against the company that was in liquidation.

Hacking & Paterson & Anor v Wilson UKEATS/0054/09/BI
Appeal against refusal by the ET to strike out a claim of indirect sex discrimination. The claimant claimed that she was being indirectly discriminated against because her employer refused her request for flexible working. The main issue for discussion was the make-up of the pool of comparators: should it consist of all employees of the respondent or just those who wanted the flexible working benefit? The EAT could not conclude that if the pool was made up only of those persons who wanted the benefit that the inevitable answer was that there was no indirect discrimination (since all requests would have been declined) and for that reason agreed that the Employment Judge was correct to refuse the application for a strike out.
