Bailey v Stonewall, Garden Court Chambers and others is a UK discrimination case in 2022 brought by Allison Bailey against her chambers Garden Court Chambers and Stonewall. The Employment Appeal Tribunal ruled that Garden Court Chambers had discriminated against her in concluding that two of her personal tweets potentially breached her core duties as a barrister and awarded £22,000 in damages, but dismissed all other claims with regards to lost income or work opportunities due to the complaint. The Tribunal also dismissed all of her claims against Stonewall.
Bailey unsuccessfully appealed the claim against Stonewall at the Employment Appeal Tribunal, with the appeal being dismissed in July 2024. In December 2024, the Court of Appeal granted Bailey permission to further appeal against the ruling in favour of Stonewall.
