Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a preliminary hearing held remotely by Skype on 18 May 2020 before Employment Judge Davies. The parties did not object to the remote format, and the tribunal recorded that a face-to-face hearing was not practicable.
The only substantive finding recorded in the judgment was that, at the time of the events complained of in the claim, Ms H Newsome had a disability as defined in the Equality Act 2010. The judgment does not record any final liability determination on the underlying claim or any award of compensation.
Employment Judge Davies gave reasons orally at the hearing and noted that written reasons would be provided in due course.

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.
