Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMolly Murphy brought disability discrimination and disability-related harassment complaints against LFH (Fowey Hall) Ltd. The tribunal found that she was disabled at the relevant time by reason of cervical spondylosis.
The tribunal recorded that the Claimant's claims of direct disability discrimination, discrimination arising from disability, and failure to make reasonable adjustments beyond the complaint about the adjustments in place being removed from her were dismissed upon withdrawal. It also recorded that any complaint occurring prior to November 2020 as an act of disability-related harassment, other than the 2019 'loopy' incident, was dismissed upon withdrawal.
The separate complaint about the 2019 incident in which the Claimant was referred to as 'loopy' was held to have been presented out of time. The tribunal found that it had not been presented within such further period as it considered just and equitable. The judgment records no monetary award.

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.
