Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt a preliminary hearing on 29 December 2022, Employment Judge Livesey found that Mr G De Burgh was disabled from 26 November 2020 by reason of a mental health condition which caused stress and anxiety. The tribunal dismissed the discrimination complaints that predated 26 November 2020.
The tribunal also recorded that the complaints of direct discrimination and discrimination arising from disability under ss. 13 and 15 were dismissed upon withdrawal. The complaint of failure to make reasonable adjustments was not determined at this hearing and was to proceed in accordance with the case management order of the same date.

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.
