Key findings

The judgment records that those discrimination claims did not proceed further at this stage.
The tribunal also recorded that the hearing listed in Bristol for 23 to 25 February 2026 will consider the Claimant's unfair dismissal claim only. No remedy was awarded in this preliminary judgment.

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.
