Ms Wawrowska, a lay representative and the claimant’s sister For the v Respondent — 2021

This was a preliminary hearing before Employment Judge Perry sitting alone on 12 January 2021. The claimant's emails of 30 November and 1 December 2020 were treated as identifying two discrimination issues: a failure to offer a role in November 2018 and a failure to invite her to a meeting on 29-30 November 2018. The judge recorded that, in relation to Issue 2, the claimant's application for an extension of time meant she did not materially fail to comply with the unless order in paragraph 9 of the earlier order.

The extract states that Issues 1 and 2 were the entirety of the claimant's discrimination complaints. The time-limit wording in paragraph 2 is internally inconsistent in the extracted text, but the tribunal said it lacked jurisdiction to hear those complaints and refused to extend time on a just and equitable basis. In the alternative, it struck out the entirety of the complaints because the claimant had not actively pursued her discrimination and money claims and had not complied with tribunal orders.

The claimant's application for relief from sanctions was refused because she had not provided a compliant statement, medical records, an updated schedule of loss, the further particulars required for any additional complaints, or supporting statements and evidence. The judgment records no monetary remedy or award, and states that any restricted reporting application would be dealt with if made.
