Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Mark Butler recorded that the claimant withdrew six complaints, and the tribunal dismissed them accordingly under rule 52. The dismissed complaints were a detriment claim under s.44 ERA 1996 relating to the alleged 9 July 2019 statement about glue work and there being no job for the claimant if she could not work with the glue.
The tribunal also dismissed two automatic unfair dismissal claims: one under s.99(3)(a) Employment Rights Act 1996 and regulation 20 of the Maternity and Parental Leave Regulations 1999, and one under s.104 ERA 1996 for assertion of a statutory right. Further dismissed complaints were detriments under s.47C ERA 1996 and regulation 19 of the MPL Regulations 1999, maternity discrimination under s.18 Equality Act 2010, and victimisation under s.27 Equality Act 2010.
The judgment states that the claimant's remaining claims would proceed to final hearing, to be listed in due course. No remedy was awarded in this judgment because the listed complaints were dismissed following withdrawal.

How we got this data
Case essentials (reference, date, judge, venue, country, claim categories) are extracted from the structured metadata gov.uk publishes alongside each decision. Parties and monetary figures are extracted from the judgment PDF text. Key findings and per-claim outcomes require a second extraction pass that is not yet complete for this case — until then, the primary source linked above is the authoritative record.
