Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMr J Galatis brought complaints against Catalyst Housing Ltd of discrimination arising from disability and failure to make reasonable adjustments. Employment Judge Quill, sitting alone at Watford on 9 April 2021, recorded that the claim form was presented outside the primary time limit in section 123(1)(a) of the Equality Act 2010.
The tribunal extended time under section 123(1)(b) of the Equality Act 2010. On that basis, both complaints were held to be within the tribunal's jurisdiction. The written record does not contain any findings on the substantive merits of either disability discrimination complaint.
No monetary award is recorded in the judgment, and no split of remedy between claims is set out. The written record notes only that the decision was sent to the parties on 19 July 2021.

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.
