Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt the preliminary hearing in Dundee on 16 March 2023, the tribunal considered the claimant's claims of unfair dismissal and disability discrimination. It found that both claims had been brought outwith the applicable time limits.
For the unfair dismissal claim, the tribunal was satisfied that it had been reasonably practicable for the claimant to present the claim in time. For the disability discrimination claim, the tribunal decided that it was not just and equitable to extend the time limit. On that basis, the tribunal held that it had no jurisdiction to consider either claim and both were dismissed.

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.
