Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe preliminary hearing considered whether the claimant's Equality Act complaints were presented within time, whether it would be just and equitable to extend time, and whether the claimant was disabled within the meaning of section 6 Equality Act 2010. The complaints identified included direct disability discrimination, discrimination arising from disability, failure to make reasonable adjustments, disability-related harassment, and victimisation.
The tribunal found that all complaints had been brought out of time. It considered the claimant's internal grievance, the delay, prejudice to the respondent, and the potential prejudice to the claimant if the claim could not proceed, but was not satisfied that it was just and equitable to extend time for any of the complaints.
Because all complaints were out of time, the tribunal held that it had no jurisdiction to hear them. The claim was dismissed and no remedy was awarded.

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.
