Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMiss V Isorna brought Equality Act 2010 complaints against Frimley Health NHS Foundation Trust. At the hearing in Reading on 1 October 2020, Employment Judge Gumbiti-Zimuto held that the claimant's complaints of direct discrimination and harassment had been presented outside the time limit.
The tribunal found it was not just and equitable to extend time for presentation of the complaints. On that basis, it held that it did not have jurisdiction to consider the claims and they were struck out.
The claimant also applied to amend the claim to include sex and race discrimination. That application was refused. The written record notes that reasons were given orally at the hearing and that written reasons would not be provided unless requested within the stated time limit.

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.
