Hi
i am in the process of an ET claim for constructive unfair dismissal and discrimination (disability). I am being represented by my Trade Union, who advise that it is a strong claim. My grounds for complaint, without going into detail, focussed on factual information, in respect of a number of counts, which I have evidence of. A preliminary hearing date has been set for early next year.
We are now almost a week past the 28 day deadline for the respondent submitting an ET3 and I haven’t heard a thing since my claim was logged. My representative told me that they would contact me if a response came and I’m aware that we would need to be asked if the respondent had requested an extension.
I am aware of delays with the process and also that the Judge would make a default judgement in the event an ET3 is not submitted.
The whole experience leading to this had a particularly traumatic impact on me which I am still recovering from. So, ahead of attempting to contact my very busy union rep, or the tribunal clerk, I wanted to try and find out if there are delays with logging ET3s or when may be a reasonable amount of time to wait before presuming that there is likely no response and my claim has been forwarded to a judge. Thanks!
