Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt a preliminary hearing on 10 April 2025, Employment Judge Emery considered the claimant’s disability status for the purposes of the Equality Act 2010. The tribunal found that Mr E Omote was not a disabled person as defined by section 6 of the Equality Act 2010 because of avulsion fractures of the right anterior inferior iliac spine.
On that basis, the tribunal struck out the claim under Employment Tribunal Rule 38(1)(a) on the ground that it had no reasonable prospect of success. No monetary remedy was awarded.

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.
