Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe case was heard at North Shields before Employment Judge Shepherd sitting with lay members Mr P Curtis and Ms L Jackson on 17, 18 July 2019 and 23, 24 September 2019. The respondent was The Council of the City of Newcastle Upon Tyne and the claimant was Ms M Emmerson.
The Tribunal's unanimous judgment was that the unfair dismissal claim was not well founded and was dismissed. The judgment does not set out separate findings on liability beyond that outcome and does not record any award flowing from the unfair dismissal claim.
The disability discrimination claim was dismissed upon withdrawal. The judgment records no separate merits determination or remedy for that claim, and no monetary award is stated anywhere in the decision.

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.
