Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt a preliminary hearing in Manchester on 26 October 2021, Employment Judge B Hodgson, sitting alone, held that the tribunal did not have jurisdiction to hear Ms N Fofanah's claims against Cheshire and Wirral Partnership NHS Foundation Trust. The judgment records that the decision was given orally at the hearing and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested within 14 days.
Because the tribunal found that it lacked jurisdiction, the claimant's disability discrimination, race discrimination, unfair dismissal, unlawful deduction from wages, and working time claims were dismissed without any substantive findings on liability. No remedy or 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.
