Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

The tribunal struck out the unfair dismissal claim for lack of jurisdiction. It found that the claim had been presented out of time and that it was not reasonably practicable for it to have been presented in time.

The respondent's applications to strike out the remaining direct sex discrimination and direct race discrimination claims were refused. Those claims were not finally disposed of in this judgment and were left for future case management.

The hearing was conducted by Employment Judge Clark sitting alone. No monetary remedy was awarded in this 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.
