NLJ this week: Procedure takes centre stage in employment law brief

In Ahmed v Capital Arches Group Ltd, the EAT reaffirmed that only continuing acts, not one-off decisions with lasting effects, extend limitation.

Moustache v Chelsea and Westminster Hospital NHS Trust stressed that claimants must plead their cases properly—tribunals are not there to fill gaps.

AYZ v BZA broke new ground by applying the Sexual Offences (Amendment) Act 1992 to tribunal anonymity orders, confirming its reach beyond criminal proceedings.

Finally, X v YZ Core Education Trust allowed an appeal out of time due to a genuine filing mistake.

Together, the judgments reveal tribunals tightening procedural discipline but tempering formality with fairness when honest errors arise.
