Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningMrs A Garrow brought claims against the Department of Work and Pensions for discrimination arising out of disability under section 15 of the Equality Act 2010 and for failure to make reasonable adjustments under sections 20 and 21. The case was heard by Judge Cowx sitting alone at Carlisle, with reasons given orally at the hearing.
The tribunal held that both claims were presented out of time on 19 July 2024. It also found that they were not presented within such further period as the tribunal thought was just and equitable. On that basis, the tribunal concluded that it had no jurisdiction to hear the claims.
Both claims were therefore struck out. No remedy was awarded and no separate monetary figure was recorded in the judgment.

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.
