JUDGMENT

[1]The claims for unfair dismissal and direct disability discrimination raised in the ET1 of the claimant are both struck out on the basis that they have no reasonable prospect of success.[2]The claimant does not have the requisite two years’ period of service in order to mount a claim for unfair dismissal and therefore for jurisdictional reasons the claim is struck out. The claimant has also been made out of time and it was reasonably practicable to make the claim within time.[3]With regard to the disability discrimination claim, the claim has also been made out of time and was not presented in any event within such other period as the Employment Tribunal thinks just and equitable. Furthermore it is not just and equitable to extend time in all the circumstances of this case.
