Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claimant, Mr Jack Taylor, presented a disability discrimination claim on 27 March 2024. The judgment records that the respondent, Big Easy Restaurants Ltd, did not present a valid response in time.
The tribunal noted that the claim form had been served at the claimant's place of work and that the respondent had since replied to correspondence sent to that address. The respondent said it had not received notice of the claim, but no issue was raised with the address and no information was provided about who would receive post there or how post would be dealt with.
On that basis, the tribunal gave judgment for the claimant on the disability discrimination claim under Rule 21. The judgment states that the parties would be notified in due course of a date for the remedy hearing, so no remedy figure is recorded in 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.
