Mr H Choudhary v Single Resource Ltd and Superdrug Stores plc: 3300199/2021
JUDGMENT
[1]The Claimant did not have the protected characteristic of marriage and civil partnership (as defined in section 8 of the Equality Act 2010) at any relevant time and all claims related to that protected characteristic are dismissed.[2]The claim form does not contain any allegations of age discrimination or harassment related to age. The claim form does not contain any allegations of victimisation.[3]The tribunal does not have jurisdiction to determine the complaints of discrimination or harassment which relate to comments allegedly made to the Claimant’s partner, because those complaint were not brought within the time limit defined in section 123(1)(a) of the Equality Act 2010 and it is not just and equitable to extend time.[4]The remaining claims proceed (and are subject to case management orders sent separately) and the respondents’ applications for strike out are refused.
