Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt the private hearing on 10 January 2023 before Employment Judge Buzzard, with Ms Ramsden and Mr Aldritt, the tribunal considered Mr J M Obiro’s claims against Solution Transport Limited for disability discrimination by failure to make reasonable adjustments and unfair dismissal. The reasonable-adjustments claim was dismissed on withdrawal by the claimant, so the tribunal did not make findings on its merits.
The tribunal found that Mr Obiro had not been dismissed. On that basis, his unfair dismissal claim was not well founded and was dismissed. The judgment records no separate compensatory or injury-to-feelings award.
By consent, following discussion between the parties, the claimant was ordered to pay the respondent costs in the agreed sum of £5,000, payable within 28 days of the date the judgment was signed.

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.
