Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThe Tribunal considered a preliminary issue about whether it had jurisdiction to consider the claimant's complaint of unfair dismissal. Employment Judge Cookson, sitting alone, held that the claimant had no reasonable prospect of establishing jurisdiction for that complaint.
The unfair dismissal claim was dismissed. The judgment expressly stated that this did not affect the claimant's complaints of race discrimination, and no remedies or written reasons were set out in the short 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.
