Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt a hearing on 15 July 2024 before Employment Judge Benson, the tribunal considered the claimant's pleaded complaints against Lime Pictures Limited. The claimant did not attend. The respondent was represented by Ms K Hosking, counsel.
The tribunal struck out the complaints under Employment Tribunal Rule 37(1)(c) because the claimant had not complied with earlier orders of Employment Judge Serr dated 3 August 2023 and Employment Judge Allen dated 14 February 2024 requiring further information. No substantive findings were made on liability for the underlying discrimination allegations.
The struck-out matters included a direct disability discrimination complaint and direct race discrimination complaint concerning reduced on-screen time and being cut out of scenes and episodes from summer 2020 until the claimant's contract ended on 28 February 2022. A further direct race discrimination complaint, said to concern a failure by staff in summer 2020 to correct inaccuracies published about the claimant, was also struck out. No remedy was awarded.

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.
