Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal found that the claimant had no reasonable prospect of establishing that alleged discriminatory acts or acts of harassment before 18 May 2021 formed part of a course of conduct over a period ending after 22 November 2022. It also found that the claimant had no reasonable prospect of establishing that it was just and equitable to extend time for complaints of discrimination and harassment relating to those acts.
Those discrimination and harassment complaints were struck out under Employment Tribunal Rule 37(1)(a). The tribunal also struck out the claimant's claim for automatically unfair dismissal pursuant to s.104 Employment Rights Act 1996 under Rule 37(1)(a), on the basis that it had no reasonable prospect of success.

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.
