The Labour Court on 25 September 2026 affirmed the dismissal of Pierce Parker’s employment equality complaint against University College Dublin as vexatious. Parker alleged discrimination linked to a campus ban and the cancellation of an interview for a research post. The appeal concerned whether the Adjudication Officer was correct to dismiss the complaint as vexatious; the Court did not decide the alleged interview cancellation as a substantive discrimination claim.
