Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt the preliminary hearing on 22 November 2021, Employment Judge Martin considered limitation issues in the claimant's race discrimination and unfair dismissal complaints. The tribunal held that the race discrimination complaint had been presented outside the primary limitation period and that it was not just and equitable to extend time.
The tribunal also held that the unfair dismissal complaint had been presented outside the primary limitation period and that it was reasonably practicable to have presented it in time. On that basis, the claims did not proceed to a merits hearing.
The judgment records that the claimant's claims were struck out. No monetary award was made and no remedy was assessed.

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.
