Fearon Vaughan Simpson v WM A Merrick (formerly T/A W A Merrick & Co Solicitors) UKEAT/0490/09/DA
Appeal by former employee to have counterclaims against her from her employer struck out. The claimant brought breach of contract claims for sums due under her employment contract. The respondent brought counterclaims relating to sums which the claimant took during her employment. The claimant's claims were struck out as they could only have been brought by the Official Receiver as at that time she had still been an undischarged bankrupt. The EAT refused the claimant's request that the 3 counterclaims which still survived be struck out since the requirements of the Employment Tribunals (Extension of Jurisdiction) England & Wales Order 1994, SI 1994/1623 had been met.

May v Greenwich Council UKEAT/0102/10/LA
Appeal against rejection of the claimant's ET1 form because the Tribunal ruled that it was illegible. Appeal succeeded: the EAT ruled that, although the claim form was difficult to read in places, the original claim form was readable without the use of a magnifying glass, and thus the Tribunal's decision was perverse.
