Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt a preliminary hearing on 22 January 2020, Employment Judge Hughes considered the respondent's application to strike out the claim on the grounds of no reasonable prospect of success and/or unreasonable conduct of the proceedings. The tribunal dismissed that application, stating that neither ground applied.
The tribunal also dismissed the respondent's application for a deposit order. It held that the claim did not have little reasonable prospect of success. No merits finding or compensation award was made in this judgment, which dealt only with those preliminary applications.

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.
