Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMr Peter Hogan brought a complaint of unlawful disability discrimination against JD Wetherspoon PLC. Employment Judge Shotter held that the complaint had been presented after the end of the relevant time limit.
The Tribunal further found that it was not just and equitable to extend the time limit. On that basis, it held that it did not have jurisdiction to consider the complaint and dismissed the claim.
No monetary award was made and the judgment records only the dismissal on limitation grounds.

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.
