Mr Z Pekacar v London Borough of Islington and Others
The EAT partly allowed an appeal on a list of issues. A race discrimination allegation about a threat of redeployment will be added. Two other proposed issues were rejected.
The Employment Appeal Tribunal has ruled on an appeal about a list of issues from a preliminary hearing held on 4 and 5 May 2023. The appellant is Mr Z Pekacar and the first respondent is the London Borough of Islington. The judgment is dated 23 July 2026.
The appeal concerned whether three allegations in ET1 forms should have been included in the list of issues. The EAT decided that one allegation, an implicit threat of redeployment linked to a race discrimination claim, was sufficiently pleaded to be included.
