APPEARANCES

NO APPEARANCE BY OR ON BEHALF OF THE APPELLANT


 


JUDGE HARGROVE Q.C.: In this matter there is an application of adjournment on the basis that the claim may be settled. That is an application which is refused. No person having attended before us, we have considered the papers.

It appears that on 7th November 1995 the Industrial Tribunal held that the appellant did not present his complaint within the three month period and was dismissed. He had been employed by the respondent as a slide technician. The appellant claimed that he was dismissed on the 12th May 1995. The letter from the respondents say that the employment was terminated on 3rd March 1995.

The tribunal decided that it was not within the three month period that the IT1 was presented. The question of when the appellant was dismissed is a matter for the Industrial Tribunal. The law is clearly set out in Section 55(4) of the Employment Protection (Consolidation) Act 1978. The appeal raises no question of law and is accordingly dismissed.
