Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningEmployment Judge D Wright, sitting alone, issued a partial dismissal judgment on 20 March 2025. The Claimant, Mr Richard Upton, appeared in person and the Respondent, WPP Brands (UK) Ltd trading as Landor, was represented by Ms R Dias, solicitor.
The tribunal recorded that the Claimant's claim of discrimination arising from disability was dismissed because it was withdrawn. It also recorded that the Claimant's claim of failure to pay redundancy pay was dismissed because it was withdrawn.
The judgment states that the withdrawal of the redundancy pay claim did not affect the allegation that the failure to pay redundancy pay was itself an act of discrimination, and that allegation remained before the tribunal at the date of this judgment.

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.
