Unfair dismissal is personal to claimant

An employee’s claim for unfair dismissal, wrongful dismissal and disability discrimination was dismissed by a tribunal. She appealed, and before the case was heard, she became bankrupt. The Employment Appeal Tribunal dismissed her appeal for want of jurisdiction. The claimant agreed that her claims for wrongful dismissal and disability discrimination vested in her trustee in bankruptcy, but argued that a claim for unfair dismissal was of a personal kind.
