Mrs E K Killeen v Asda Stores Ltd: 2401441/2016
JUDGMENT
The judgment of the Tribunal is that the Unless Order striking out the claimant's claims on 2 December 2016 is set aside and the claims of Mrs Killeen are reinstated. DIRECTIONS The following directions are now made for the future good conduct of the proceedings:[1]An updated Schedule of Loss shall be served by the respondent by 4.00pm on 3 March 2017.[2]The bundle of documents prepared by the respondent’s solicitor and indexed and paginated shall be served upon the claimant's solicitor by no later than 4.00pm on 3 March 2017 and the rest of the bundles in sufficient numbers for the Tribunal’s purposes brought to the hearing. The respondent’s solicitor should note that there will be three members of the panel at the final hearing.[3]By no later than 4.00pm on 10 March 2017 the claimant's solicitor shall serve upon the respondent’s solicitor a draft List of Issues to be agreed.[4]By no later than 4.00pm on 7 April 2017 the parties shall serve upon each other all witness statements which will be typed, paragraphed and paginated. Case No. 2401441/2016[5]The hearing shall take place on 1, 2, 3 and 4 August 2017 at Liverpool Employment Tribunal, 3rd Floor, Civil & Family Court Centre, 35 Vernon Street, Liverpool, L2 2BX commencing each day at 10.00am. The hearing will be for both liability and remedy if the claimant is successful.[6]Those dates in August will not be changed unless there are exceptional circumstances, save that if the parties inform the Tribunal by no later than 4.00pm on 3 March 2017 that the dates are inconvenient then at that point fresh dates will be arranged.[7]I have made no provision for reading time so the parties must attend at 10.00am on the first morning of the hearing. However, it is likely that the Employment Judge having dealt with housekeeping matters will then send the parties away so that the panel can read the appropriate witness statements and documents.[8]No further order or direction need be made. 16-02-17 Employment Judge Robinson February 2017
