Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal heard the claimant's claims against Mr T Ralston at Manchester via CVP on 2 and 3 August 2021. The written judgment records that the claimant brought claims of direct discrimination under section 13 of the Equality Act 2010 and harassment under section 26 of the Equality Act 2010.
The tribunal held that the direct discrimination claim was not well founded and dismissed it. It also held that the harassment claim was not well founded and dismissed it. The judgment does not set out separate findings on liability beyond those conclusions, and no monetary award was made.
Written reasons were given orally at the hearing, and the judgment states that written reasons would not be provided unless requested within 14 days. The published record therefore contains the outcome only, without a further written explanation of the tribunal's reasoning.

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.
