Well I found out I lost my hard fought ET case and feel
very let down by the judicial process. Had to wait 8 weeks for outcome and was totally shocked when it came. No grounds for appeal as no issues in law.
Sadly the ET preferred the evidence of the respondent, accusing me of fabricating evidence and stating that I wasn't a credible witness.
Untruths were told throughout by the respondent's witnesses and now I face a costs order which could be substantial.
Not sure how the ET could get it so wrong and my conscience is clear. I was truthful throughout, but the respondent must've carefully planned their strategy, unless other influences were at work. Can't believe that untruths were believed and now I could lose everything. Can't be right. I now feel I've got to find ways of proving I didn't lie and that the respondents witnesses did. Feeling very let down by the whole process.
I was assured of the strength of my case all through and had legal expenses cover through house insurance.
I did receive a letter warning me that my case was hopeless and threat of substantial costs a month before hearing, but my representative advised that it was normal tactics and to ignore it. The respondent built up costs enormously through repeatedly requests, emails and large number of witnesses. They fought the respondents case very aggressively! Very upset and worried. Your thoughts would be appreciated . Disgraceful and I now have no faith in the employment tribunal system.
