Mr J Galvin
Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt a preliminary hearing in Liverpool on 20 May 2022, Employment Judge Horne found that Mr J Galvin had a disability within the meaning of section 6 of the Equality Act 2010. The judgment recorded that the disability was the effect of the mental impairment of anxiety and depression.
The decision was confined to that preliminary issue. It did not determine the merits of any underlying discrimination complaint, and no remedy was awarded in the judgment.

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.
