Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe claim was heard at the East London Hearing Centre on 16, 17 and 18 April 2024 before Employment Judge S Park, with Mrs B Saund and Mrs J Clark as members. The respondent was the Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis. The claimant brought direct discrimination claims on the grounds of gender reassignment under section 13 of the Equality Act 2010, together with claims framed as unfair dismissal and constructive dismissal.
The Tribunal held that the claimant's direct discrimination claims on the grounds of gender reassignment failed and were dismissed. It also found that it did not have jurisdiction to hear the claimant's unfair dismissal claim under section 98 of the Employment Rights Act 1996. The claimant's claim that he had been constructively dismissed, and that this was direct discrimination on the grounds of gender reassignment, also failed and was dismissed. No monetary award is recorded in the 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.
