Key findings

Tribunal's reasoning

At a face-to-face preliminary hearing in Cardiff on 29 September 2020, before Employment Judge Vernon, the claimant appeared in person with the support of a friend and the respondent was represented by counsel. The tribunal made only a procedural ruling on limitation and granted the claimant's request for an extension of time under section 123(1)(b) of the Equality Act 2010 to 2 October 2019.

The written record does not set out any substantive findings on the merits of the underlying Equality Act claim, and it records no award of compensation or other remedy. It is therefore a decision limited to the time-limit application rather than the underlying discrimination issues.

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.
