What is Mrs Fabry’s claim?

Mrs Fabry, Kristof Fabry’s mother, alleged that Statham Gill Davies Solicitors enacted her son’s redundancy due to his mental health disability. This is because it required him to take leaves of absence from work during April and May 2019.

She told the tribunal that her son’s redundancy was either a direct consequence of:

  • his mental health issues, or;
  • the firm’s perceived future needs for Fabry to take leaves of absence, possible adjustments to work, and their evaluation of Fabry’s ability to fulfil his job responsibilities.

The tribunal’s decision was not centred around the discrimination allegations themselves but was focused on whether the delay in bringing the case should prevent Fabry’s mother from making her discrimination arguments.
