Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

At an open preliminary hearing on 17 March 2021, Employment Judge Stout held that the claimant's Equality Act 2010 claims were outside the tribunal's jurisdiction under ss 123 and 140B of the Act insofar as they concerned matters occurring before 14 January 2020. The judgment records that those parts of the claim were dismissed.

The extracted text does not identify the underlying protected characteristic(s) or make any separate substantive merits findings. No monetary remedy is recorded in this judgment, and the decision is confined to the jurisdictional issue arising from the pre-14 January 2020 allegations.

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.
