Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

This was a preliminary hearing before Employment Judge Slater on 20 September 2019 in which the respondent applied to strike out the claimant's age and disability discrimination claims arising from refusal of employment as a life assurance adviser. The claimant did not attend in person. The tribunal decided to proceed without allowing telephone participation, noting that earlier applications to do so had been refused and that there were no new circumstances.

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.
