Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal recorded two dispositions. One claim, identified as claim number 2400366/22 in the judgment, was dismissed following withdrawal by the claimant.
The tribunal also recorded that claim number 2408187/21 had been presented outside the normal time limit. It found that it would not be just and equitable to extend time, and for that reason dismissed that claim as being outside the tribunal's jurisdiction.
The hearing took place at Liverpool by video before Employment Judge Buzzard sitting alone. No written reasons were provided beyond the short judgment record unless requested.
Claims and outcomes
2 findings recorded| Claim type | Issue or finding | Outcome | Protected characteristic | Award |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Disability discrimination | The judgment records that claim number 2408187/21 was presented out of time and dismissed because it was not just and equitable to extend time. The case number appears inconsistent with the listed reference 2408087/2021, so this extraction assumes that is a typographical error referring to this case. | Dismissed | Disability | — |
| Other | The judgment states that claim number 2400366/22 was dismissed on withdrawal by the claimant, but it does not identify the legal claim type in the text provided. | Withdrawn | — | — |

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.
