Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningAt a public preliminary hearing, the tribunal considered whether the claimant could pursue historical disability discrimination allegations that overlapped with a previous claim he had withdrawn. The respondent had conceded that the claimant was a disabled person due to Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia, and the earlier claim had included discrimination arising from disability, failure to make reasonable adjustments and victimisation.
The tribunal found that the claimant had brought the first claim to an end by withdrawal, without reserving a right to pursue the same matters again. Applying Henderson v Henderson, it concluded that the section 15 allegation about overtime in 2023 and the reasonable adjustment allegations concerning the period from 2020 to 2023 should not be permitted to continue in the second claim.
The judgment dismissed those historical allegations only. It stated that the claimant's complaints of unfair and discriminatory dismissal arising from his 2024 dismissal would proceed to a separate hearing.

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.
