Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal at Exeter, chaired by Employment Judge Smail with Mrs V. Blake and Ms E. Smillie, dismissed the claimant’s claim of unfair dismissal. It also dismissed the claim of discrimination arising from disability in respect of the dismissal, and dismissed the claim of failure to make reasonable adjustments. Full oral reasons were given at the hearing on 6 February 2024.
The judgment records that the claimant had additional claims which were not immediately determined: those claims would be dismissed 15 days after the judgment was sent unless the claimant withdrew that process by restoring them by email before then. If restored, Employment Judge Smail would decide how the case should proceed procedurally, including how any claims apparently out of time should be handled.

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.
