Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a consent judgment in Ms V Lawrence v Birmingham City Council, heard at Birmingham before Employment Judge Cookson sitting with Ms Campbell and Dr Hammersley. The parties were represented by Ms Hodgetts for the Respondent and the Claimant appeared in person.
The judgment does not contain substantive findings on the disability discrimination claim. Instead, the tribunal recorded that the hearing was adjourned for 28 days by consent, with liberty to apply during that period.
The order states that if no application is made within the 28 days, the claim will be treated as withdrawn and dismissed with effect from that date. No remedy was assessed or awarded in the judgment.

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.
