Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe judgment followed a remote case management hearing by telephone. The Claimant withdrew his race discrimination claim, and that claim was dismissed on withdrawal against both Respondents.
The Claimant conceded that the First Respondent was not his employer. On that basis, his unfair dismissal and wrongful dismissal claims against the First Respondent were dismissed as having no reasonable prospect of success.
The tribunal recorded that the unfair dismissal and wrongful dismissal claims against the Second Respondent would proceed to a full hearing, subject to the outcome of any application by the Second Respondent to set aside the order joining it as a respondent.

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.
