Appeals Process

[weirdo]

Could anyone offer any advice on the following please?

I was dismissed on 20/02/12, for Gross Misconduct, I swore ( matter o factly ) in the context of a sentence in April 11.

I was on a two year serious from Jan 10.

I had my appeal on 09/03/12.

I had an Atos Report done on me on 17/03/12 ( after my Dismissal! )

And Ive heard nothing since........

I sent of my ET1 and thats been acccepted, and ive kept my Area Rep informed.

The Atos report was very, pro Me, but then I've never had a problem with Atos( I've been seeing them periodically since 2004 )

I qualify under the Equality Act.

So, any ideas as to why the wait for a decision?

Cheers

RM nearly always drag out the appeal time,

1 so you miss the ET timeout

2 I believe they check with their legal team ie Weightmans to see if they could lose at an ET

Thanks, Hantsman.

Your probably right, still, if it was an open and shut case, it would've been shut by now?

I got a standard letter from Acas today, looking at a possible settlement, is that the norm?

That could be that then.

The tribunal gets Acas to act as a broker between you and wankmans(RM lawyers)and that they can perhaps work towards settling your differences....a settlement is something altogether different where they offer you some dosh or your job back as a settlement to your claim as you've only just started on this route I'd be amazed if wankmans where offering you a `settlement`.

RM do not have to speak to ACAS and its very rare they do, but if they do its normally because they have made a boo boo.

I never said they have to speak to ACAS I said they act as a broker and in my experience they use ACAS to try and fish for answers particularly if the other party is unrepresented and doing it alone,granted they don't tend to speak to ACAS if the other side is represented by the cwu but some of us know why that is.

Cheers fellas

Sorry, i mis informed you, the letter states, it " is to discuss the posibility of a settlement".

So, from a laymans point of view, If a meeting is arranged and RM turn up, then I reckon I'm in front, or if RM decline to the mediation, then they ( RM ) must think they have a case?

Your thoughts please

That is just the standard letter they send everybody who puts in a claim to a tribunal,it's just reminding you that you can use Acas to settle the case but as already been stated RM hardly ever use Acas as their RM lawyers are arrogant feckwits who think that they can win anything by using bullyboy tactics like threating people with cost orders,refusing to disclose documents that are relevant to your case or generally being as difficult and lying as their paymasters.
I certainly wouldn't read anything into a case if they never turned up at an Acas mediation meeting!
Did i mention that they are twats.?

Well, you probably did but it can't be repeated too many times!
