Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal held that the proceedings on the complaints in the claim were not brought within three months of the acts complained of, as required by section 123(1)(a) of the Equality Act 2010.
The Tribunal nevertheless found that it was just and equitable to permit the proceedings to be brought out of time under section 123(1)(b) of the Equality Act 2010. The claim was ordered to proceed to the listed final hearing, and the claimant's status as a disabled person for the purposes of the claim was recorded as conceded.

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.
