Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt the preliminary hearing on 29 October 2020, Employment Judge K Bryant QC held that the Claimant’s Equality Act 2010 claims were presented out of time. The tribunal found that it was not just and equitable to extend time, with the result that it had no jurisdiction to hear the claims.
The claims were therefore dismissed at the preliminary stage. No remedy was awarded, and the judgment records that written reasons would not be provided unless requested within 14 days of the judgment being sent to the parties.

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.
