Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningBy a letter dated 27 November 2020, the Tribunal gave Mrs M McWade an opportunity to make representations or request a hearing on why her complaint of indirect age discrimination should not be struck out because it had no reasonable prospect of success. She did not make written representations, did not make sufficient representations, and did not request a hearing.
The Tribunal therefore struck out the indirect age discrimination complaint. The judgment records that the claimant's remaining claims were still listed for hearing on 12 to 15 October 2021, to be heard in person.

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.
