Kuncharalingam v Word by Word Translations Ltd UKEAT/0269/10/SM

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.

Nazir & Anor v Asim & Anor UKEAT/0332/09/RN
Appeal against findings of sexual and racial harassment and discrimination. The claims were brought against 2 members of a board, which was an unincorporated organisation: the Tribunal ruled that it had jurisdiction to hear the claims against the 2 board members in their capacity as representatives of the UA and not as individual perpetrators. 4 of the claims succeeded. The jurisdiction appeal was dismissed. The EATconfirmed that the board members were liable as 'employer' and not through vicarious or secondary liability. Claims of racial and sexual harassment and discrimination were remitted to a fresh Tribunal.
