'Time moves in one direction, memory in another' - The Role of Memory in the Employment Tribunal

In this webinar, Jason Braier and Safia Tharoo looked at the importance of memory to ET decisions, focusing on:

• The importance and unreliability of memory in giving evidence
• The Gestmin v Credit Suisse principles and recent case law changing that approach
• Fading memory as a basis for asserting prejudice when applying to strike out or opposing extensions of time or applications to amend.
