Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt a preliminary hearing on 28 April 2023, Employment Judge Warren sitting alone held that the claimant's age discrimination claim had been presented out of time. The tribunal decided it would not be just and equitable to extend time, concluded that it had no jurisdiction to hear the claim, and dismissed it.
The judgment did not determine the claimant's other pleaded claims. The remaining claims of unfair dismissal, disability discrimination, redundancy, breach of contract, unlawful deductions from wages and unpaid annual leave were listed for a further preliminary hearing on 27 September 2023.

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.
