Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a record of a preliminary hearing before Employment Judge Tynan sitting alone. The tribunal determined a preliminary issue in the claimant's favour, finding that Ms Bianca Shevlin was, during the relevant period from 22 March 2021 to 30 November 2021, a disabled person within the meaning of section 6 of the Equality Act 2010 by reason of lupus.
No remedy was decided in this judgment, and the record does not determine any other substantive claims. The decision was given orally at the hearing, with written reasons to follow only if requested in accordance with the tribunal's note on the judgment form.

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.
