Employment law

M Shubita v The University of Leeds Beckett & Ors

The Employment Tribunal erred in striking out the claimant's claim without giving reasonable notice as required by Rule 37(2), particularly given the complexity of the case and the claimant's status as a litigant in person. The inclusion of the strike out application in the ET3 and discussion at the hearing did not amount to reasonable notice. The strike out decision is overturned and the matter is remitted to the Employment Tribunal for reconsideration.

  • Strike out applications
  • Procedural fairness
  • Reasonable notice
  • Litigant in person
  • Case management

Equity

Wenda Co Limited v Wang Jinhong & Ors

There was a material change in circumstances due to amendment of the claim and discovery of double invoicing, justifying the Defendants' discharge application. However, there remains a seriously arguable claim for proprietary and freezing injunctions. The Claimant failed to comply with the duty of full and frank disclosure, but the failure was not deliberate. The interests of justice require the injunctions to continue until trial, with a costs sanction imposed on the Claimant.

  • Freezing injunctions
  • Proprietary injunctions
  • Full and frank disclosure
  • Abuse of process
  • Fiduciary duties
  • Trusts
