29 October 2025Before Employment Judge MaxwellMidlands West

Outcome

Other

Individual claims

Unfair Dismissalnot determined

This was a preliminary hearing to determine whether the claim was presented in time. The tribunal ruled that it was in time, allowing the claim to proceed to a full merits hearing.

Discrimination Arising from Disability (s.15)(disability)not determined

This was a preliminary hearing on time limits. The tribunal ruled that the disability discrimination claim with respect to dismissal was presented in time, allowing it to proceed to a full merits hearing.

Facts

Mr Lucas was dismissed by Klarius Products Ltd with effect from 6 March 2023. He brought claims of unfair dismissal and disability discrimination. The respondent appears to have challenged whether the claims were presented in time.

Decision

The tribunal determined at a preliminary hearing that both the unfair dismissal claim and the disability discrimination claim relating to dismissal were presented within the applicable time limits. The claims may therefore proceed to a full merits hearing.

Practical note

This preliminary judgment resolved only the procedural issue of whether claims were in time, not the substantive merits of the unfair dismissal or disability discrimination allegations.
