Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt Leicester on 4 July 2023, Employment Judge Adkinson sat with Mr K Rose and Ms L Woodward. After considering the evidence and the parties' submissions, the tribunal gave an oral judgment and later issued this written record.
The tribunal unanimously found that Ms C Reeves was disabled by reason of stress, anxiety and depression from 26 April 2021 until the end of her employment. It also found that the effects of her disability on her were as she described in paragraph 4 of her undated disability impact statement.
This brief record does not set out any monetary award or any further finding on liability beyond the disability status issue. It notes that written reasons would not be provided unless requested in accordance with the tribunal's standard practice for an oral 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.
