Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a preliminary hearing before Employment Judge Horne in Liverpool on 3 December 2021. The claimant, Mr A Duru, appeared in person and the respondent, University of Liverpool, was represented by Ms R Cairney, solicitor. The judgment records that the issue determined was whether the claim should be struck out.
The tribunal's decision was that the claim was not struck out. No further findings about the merits of the underlying claim are set out in the written judgment, and the note states that the reasons were delivered orally at the hearing.
No remedy was awarded or recorded in this judgment, and the written judgment does not identify any split between different heads of claim or any findings on discrimination or dismissal liability beyond the refusal to strike out the claim.

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.
