Facts
Mrs Nicholson was employed by Avon and Somerset Constabulary and brought multiple disability discrimination claims alongside an unfair dismissal claim. At a preliminary hearing on 2 July 2025, she withdrew her direct and indirect disability discrimination complaints. At a subsequent case management hearing on 27 November 2025, the claimant agreed those withdrawn complaints should be dismissed.
Decision
The tribunal dismissed the withdrawn complaints of direct and indirect disability discrimination on withdrawal. The remaining claims of unfair dismissal, failure to make reasonable adjustments, and discrimination arising from disability continue to a full hearing.
Practical note
This is a procedural judgment managing case progression where a claimant strategically narrowed their disability discrimination claims while proceeding with unfair dismissal and other disability-related claims.
