Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claimant, Ms L Menzies, brought a complaint against Innotec Supplies (UK) Ltd that was described in the judgment as sexual harassment. The case was heard by Employment Judge A Richardson at Bristol on 15 April 2021, with the claimant appearing in person and the respondent represented by Ms J Platt, Solicitor.
The Tribunal found that the claim had been filed out of time. It further held that it was not just and equitable to extend time. On that basis, the Tribunal said that it had no jurisdiction to hear the claimant’s complaint of sexual harassment.
The judgment therefore records that the claim was dismissed. No monetary award was made, and the written record states that reasons had been given orally at the hearing and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested in time.

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.
