Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

At the Bristol hearing on 6 October 2022, Employment Judge Livesey decided that Mrs S Hunter was not disabled at the material time. On that basis, her complaints of discrimination on the grounds of disability were dismissed.

The judgment also records that the claimant’s remaining complaint of unfair dismissal was not decided at that hearing. It was to proceed in accordance with further directions once unavailable dates were provided within 7 days of the judgment being sent to the parties.

No remedy was assessed in this judgment, and the written record states that reasons had been given orally at the hearing. The tribunal therefore made a final decision only on the disability discrimination complaints, leaving the unfair dismissal claim outstanding.

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.
