Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe tribunal considered the respondent's application under rule 37(1)(a) to strike out the claimant's direct race discrimination claim on the basis that it had no reasonable prospect of success. That application was refused.
The tribunal also considered the respondent's alternative application for a deposit order under rule 39 in relation to the same allegation. That application was granted on the basis that the allegation had little reasonable prospect of success, with a separate deposit order to be issued.

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.
