Oriental Bu Trading Limited v The Commissioners for HMRC

Once HMRC withdrew the decisions and assessments forming the subject of the appeals, there was no longer any appealable matter within section 83(1) VATA. The tribunal therefore lacked jurisdiction and was required to strike out the appeals under rule 8(2)(a) of the Tribunal Procedure (First-tier Tribunal) (Tax Chamber) Rules 2009.

Employment law

Bazgha Anwar v Boots Management Services Ltd

The Employment Judge erred in law by dismissing the Appellant’s claim of automatic unfair dismissal at a private Preliminary Hearing without prior warning, based on an incorrect view that claims of detriment and automatic unfair dismissal were legally inconsistent, and by treating the Appellant as having withdrawn her claim when she was unfairly pressured to choose between claims. This amounted to procedural unfairness and breach of Employment Tribunal Rules.
