Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal heard the matter remotely by CVP on 16 June 2021 before Employment Judge Hanning sitting alone. The claimant appeared in person and the respondent was represented by counsel.
The judgment records that the claimant was not, at the material time, a person with a disability within the meaning of section 6 of the Equality Act 2010. On that basis, the claimant's claims of disability discrimination were struck out.
Reasons were given orally at the hearing. The written judgment states that written reasons would not be provided unless requested at the hearing or within 14 days of the written record being sent to the parties.

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.
