Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal struck out the claimant’s age discrimination complaint. On 22 November 2023 Employment Judge Lancaster warned that there was nothing in the claim form to indicate any grounds for an age discrimination complaint, and the claimant was told that unless further information was provided by 6 December 2023 the complaint would be struck out as having no reasonable prospect of success.
The claimant did not respond to that warning and did not provide an explanation of an age discrimination complaint or any reason why it should not be struck out. The tribunal therefore struck out the age discrimination complaint. The judgment states that the claimant’s other complaints were not affected by this decision.

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.
