Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a judgment by consent dated 14 March 2022. The tribunal recorded that Mr M Brown's claims succeeded for direct sexual orientation discrimination (perceived), direct disability discrimination (perceived), direct disability discrimination by reason of his mental health condition of depression and anxiety, discrimination arising from disability, failure to make reasonable adjustments, victimisation, personal injury caused by unlawful discrimination, constructive unfair dismissal, and wrongful dismissal.
The only claim expressly dismissed was harassment. The judgment states that the harassment claims were dismissed under section 212(5) of the Equality Act 2010 because they arose from the same factual basis as the direct discrimination claims. No further reasons of fact or law are set out in the extracted text.
The judgment does not record any monetary award, breakdown of compensation, or other remedy figure in the extracted text. It therefore provides an outcome record only, without a stated sum or detailed findings beyond the consent order and the section 212(5) disposal of harassment.

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.
