A solicitor who posted a client's unfair dismissal complaint several days before expiry of the three-month time limit, but did not check whether the document had arrived at the tribunal office until a month after the time limit had expired, acted unreasonably, holds the EAT in Camden & Islington Community Services NHS Trust v Kennedy.
