Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe case was heard in public at Newcastle on 9 and 10 March 2023 before Employment Judge Aspden. In the judgment dated 30 March 2023, the tribunal dealt only with strike-out applications under Rule 37 of the Employment Tribunals Rules of Procedure 2013.
The tribunal struck out all complaints of disability discrimination made by the first claimant and the second claimant. It also struck out the age discrimination complaint made in the claim form by the first claimant and the second claimant. The reason given for each was that the claims had no reasonable prospect of success.
No liability findings beyond the strike-out decision are recorded in the extracted text, and no remedy was awarded.

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.
