Bari v Richmond & Wandsworth Councils [2025] EAT 54

Appeal against a decision which dismissed the Claimant's case management application that the Respondent disclose information in the form of answers to questions raised by the Claimant. Appeal allowed.

The Claimant made various claims relating to direct discrimination, failure to make reasonable adjustments, harassment and victimisation. He was acting as a litigant in person before the ET. During the proceedings, the Claimant wrote to the Respondent asking them to answer 8 questions the Claimant had given them 'to assist the ET'. He later described his request as a request for disclosure although it was argued that the request was in fact a request for information.

The EAT allowed the appeal as the ET judgment was not Meek compliant. Also, the ET had considered the application in relation to the reasonable adjustments claim but not the direct discrimination and victimisation claims.
