A v B UKEAT/0206/09/SM
This was a supplementary judgment requesting further submissions from both parties as to whether the original judgment should remain anonymised. The EAT decided that the effect of Article 8 of the ECHR was that the Tribunal should, in the exercise of its powers to regulate its procedure under s. 30 (3) of the Employment Tribunals Act 1996 Act, confirm the steps already taken to protect the claimant’s identity.

Darnton v Bournemouth University UKEAT/0391/09/RN
Appeal by applicant, who had made a request under the Information and Consultation of Employees Regulations 2004, that a penalty be awarded against the employer for breaching these regulations. The President, having examined the reasons put forward by the employer, concluded they were not reasonable excuses. He set a penalty of £10,000 which, whilst at the lower end of the available scale, was not negligible due to the seriousness of the breach.

Mehta v The Mayor & Burgess of the London Borough of Hackney UKEAT/0182/08/RN
Appeal against decision that time should not be extended for claims of unfair dismissal, sex and race discrimination. The EAT ruled that the ET had not erred in law in refusing to extend time, since they had not been shown any material factor which was before the Tribunal and which it failed to take properly into account. Costs of £900 were also awarded against the claimant. Appeal dismissed.

Ramkissoon v Brompton Bicycles Ltd UKEAT/0324/09/DM
Appeal against decision that the claimant was not unfairly dismissed. The EAT decided that the ET had overlooked a part of the evidence which might or might not have been of crucial importance. The EAT also questioned the ET's decision that the investigation undertaken by the employer regarding the claimant's alleged fiddling of his timesheets was adequate. The matter was remitted to a different Tribunal for a re-hearing.

Annodata Ltd v Jones UKEAT/0378/09/JOJ
Appeal against finding that, having found the dismissal to be procedurally unfair, the claimant did not contribute to his own dismissal and thus neither the compensatory nor basic awards were reduced. The appeal succeeded. The EAT ruled that the matter be remitted to the same Tribunal to consider the questions of contributory fault and possible Polkey reduction.

Dean v Latona Luxury Ltd UKEAT/0377/09/SM
Appeal against ruling that the claimant's claim for unpaid wages was dismissed as there was no evidence of a contract between the new employer and the claimant. Appeal succeeded: a letter which the EJ had overlooked was clear evidence that the employer intended that the claimant would be employed on the previous employer's terms.
