Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge Cookson sat alone at a CVP hearing on 30 September 2020. The claimant, Mr W Barnett, brought claims for unfair dismissal and unlawful disability discrimination against Euro Car Parts Limited. The tribunal did not determine the respondent identity point raised by the respondent because both claims were dismissed on limitation grounds.
Claims and outcomes
2 findings recorded| Claim type | Issue or finding | Outcome | Protected characteristic | Award |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Unfair dismissal | Dismissed because it was reasonably practicable for the claimant to have brought the complaint within the statutory time limit and he did not do so, so the tribunal lacked jurisdiction. | Dismissed | — | — |
| Disability discrimination | Dismissed because it was not brought within the time limit in s123(1) EqA and was not presented within a period the tribunal found just and equitable; the tribunal therefore lacked jurisdiction to consider the claim. | Dismissed | Disability | — |

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.
