Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt a preliminary hearing on 20 April 2023, the tribunal refused the respondent's application to strike out the claim on the basis that the claimant had acted unreasonably in conducting the proceedings. The hearing was before Employment Judge Dunlop sitting with Ms A Gilchrist and Mr R Alldritt.
The tribunal then determined the disability issue and found that Mr Goodman was not a disabled person within the meaning of s.6 Equality Act 2010 during the period of his employment with Italian Catering Concept Ltd. On that basis, the claimant's harassment claim on grounds of disability was dismissed.
The written record states that the claimant's other claims were to proceed to hearing on 14 and 15 September 2023. No remedy was assessed in this preliminary hearing and no monetary award was made.

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.
